Hey guys i recently formatted my computer to Windows 10 Pro 64bit.
Everything was working fine until i did all the windows updates and now im getting a black screen only when trying to stream Overwatch this doesnt happen with any other game like CSGO etc? Same happens with window and monitor capture. Ive tried to reinstall everything, disabling game mode, running everything as administrator and almost all the fixes i could find from youtube and google and deleted every program that migth be capturing my monitor since ive read that that might cause problems with obs studio.

Does anyone have any idea what might help?

Specs:

MSI z170a krait gaming
MSI 960gtx 4g
Intel i7 6700k
16gb ddr4

Changing encoder settings etc wont make any difference. im pretty hopeless at this point and thinking of formatting to a different version of windows since earlier with win 10 home 64bit everything was working fine. The problem came up after i installed all updates on windows 10 pro

Hey guys i figured out a solution to this if this helps anyone :)

I started getting black screen on other games also and decided im gonna try to fix it.

Heres what i did
- I completely removed NVIDIA Drivers from control panel and used DDU to remove any files that stayed after uninstalling from control panel.
- Reinstalled drivers without Geforce expirience and 3d drivers.
- Removed Intel Graphics drivers completely (Since i have 2nd monitor plugged in to my motherboard)
- Reinstalled OBS Studio
- Disabled Game Mode again from windows settings

After i did all this my obs finally shows the game with game capture :)

I had this issue with the AMD R9 Fury when trying to stream it. Instead, I now use a dedicated stream PC and can capture anything, which is another possible solution.
