    Ok, this might sound a bit random, but did you tried clearing cache and no mods (if you do have any ui app mods)? nvm, you did. IT was hidden.

    update,
    I installed the old photoshop6.0 on the laptop, which it did install svg viewer, then I tested game, it replicated my PC problem with the UI problems, uninstalled svg viewer left photoshop6.0 installed still, ran game again on laptop it did fix it on the laptop. Then installed photoshop CS5 to test that, game still works fine on the laptop with both version of photoshop installed. Just need to uninstall svg viewer,

    So I'm not sure exactly what my problem is on my PC, I must be not seeing something or its a different third party program

    What I can think of is that either your PC has some left-over of that 'Adobe SVG Viewer' program somewhere, or it's another program doing that.
    But that pretty much confirms it's not a problem of the game itself, but caused by another program conflicting.
    There is no way we could tell you what program is doing that exactly.

    I'm not sure if it's doable, but you could try using this program:
    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/process-explorer
    And while the game is running, see if you can find anything related to that adobe software.

    Big Update
    I downloaded and tried Process-explorer that you suggested. I couldn't see anything in there that stood out. So I tried searching online abit and found this website http://extension.nirsoft.net/svg its a site that shows a list of programs that can open .svg files and Registry keys related to those file type. So I went to the windows folder then open registry edit found .svg in the Classes_Root folder and the default had it set as adobe something, there were some others in there as well but I deleted all registry in there and set the default to no value by deleting it. Then I launched BeamNG and the UI worked. yesss :)

    So for some reason the Registry hung on to that info even though I uninstalled adobe SVG Viewer.

    Thank you for your help through out this process and now my game finally works the way it should. :)

    Please note this thread is pretty old.
    It's usually better to create a new thread.

    Anyway, screenshot of what you seeing?
