Hi everyone. This is my first post over here. I have used obs for about three years. Everything was fine until one day I formated my HD. Then the nightmare began. I went through all YT vids, have red all posts over here and still nothing. I went bananas.
Am opening soft as an admin, using Win7 I checked options in settings, my graphic card is nvidia, but I haven't option to force my graph to open OBS.
Here is the last log file https://obsproject.com/logs/Q4mz-0IoIQxnEmVa
Would appreciate any help. Cheers.

Are you running Terminal as admin? If so, OBS needs to run as admin in order to capture, I believe. The game capture on terminal.exe appears to be failing.

21:38:09.841: [game-capture: 'Game Capture'] attempting to hook process: terminal.exe
21:38:11.941: [game-capture: 'Game Capture'] capture stopped
21:38:13.874: [game-capture: 'Game Capture'] attempting to hook process: terminal.exe
21:38:13.907: [game-capture: 'Game Capture'] capture stopped
21:38:17.907: [game-capture: 'Game Capture'] attempting to hook process: terminal.exe
21:38:17.940: [game-capture: 'Game Capture'] capture stopped

Yes; I run it as admin. But in vain :(

And I assume you were able to capture Terminal.exe like this before?

Unfortunately you might just need to try downgrading as I am not sure about capturing this app, as I've never tried, and I no longer run Windows 7.
