Hello!
Please help, this is driving me batty.
After trialing (and disabling my firewall, but leaving antivirus up), its definitely my firewall blocking OBS from streaming - but I've already added it to programs allowed through AND the manual rules, both outgoing and incoming. What is going on, and more importantly, how do I fix it!? I can't just turn off my firewall for huge swathes of time.

If you haven't already, I would suggest turning off your firewall long enough to make sure it's the firewall that's blocking OBS.

As stated above - disabling the antivirus still results in obs not getting through. Disabling the firewall, even with the antivirus on, lets it go through.

How about your anti-virus...I know you think it's the fw but try it anyway.

I'm running W7 and don't have it allowed in mt fw...
I don't use it that much on my W10 machine....

I'm having the same issue.. Everything was working fine until last week.

Cycled the Domain firewall on and off a few times and starting up OBS and shutting it down between each cycle of the firewall on and off and now its working fine again :s
