Steam overlay not working?

[lawenforcementjoker 31]

Just curious to see if anyone else has the problem where the steam ingame overlay does not pop up with shift+tab... I have it enabled and it doesn't work anymore... It used to when I first started playing... Also my steam has the most recent update, and I am on windows 8.1

May be completely irrelevant, but I noticed that my Steam overlay stopped working in Assassin's Creed Unity. May be something with the latest steam update, not the first time Valve broke something! 

 

I mean, they were responsible for the black mesa incident :P

That is completely true... When I looked it up on steam they just said "make sure its enabled" and that some firewalls can prevent it... Oh well I was just going to use it for the FPS it shows... No biggie just wanted to see if anyone found a fix
