I have also tried to do 2 clean re-installs of Steam in its entirety. I have tried doing 2 clean re-installs as it was suggested by Paradox Support. The UI is now vanished across all saves (new as well as old). After playing (and enjoying the game) for about 2.5 hours the UI (or HUD, or whatever it is called) vanished.
