Question / Help C0000005 issue (Crashes while opening OBS)

[JesperS]

Hi guys.

I have streamed abit here lately - and last time was yesterday with no issues at all. But all of a sudden I cant access OBS for some odd reason and it gave me a crash notice.
I've already updated my GPU (It was needed) but I cant seem to figure out what it is actually. Hope you can help me out.

And heres a log from my recent crash.

Are you using any VST plugins in OBS?

Are you using any VST plugins in OBS?

I dont use any. The only thing I've done was adding mic filters because of distortion. I've bought a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 Gen2 soundcard but i dont see that as a VST plugin.

And I've only added my Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 Gen2 in the Mic/Auxiliary Audio Device and thats it.

It stuck on the last scene. And while in Studio Mode you can't override scene with the --scene key. This is bug.

No way to create the safe startup key for now. But you can try different Scene Collection, if you remember its name (%appdata%\obs-studio\basic\scenes) then use the --collection key. Maybe this could help you?

Also, what's inside this scene collection (your_scene_collection_name.json) that crashes OBS Studio?

I solved my issue.

What I did was:
%appdata% -> obs-studio -> basic -> scenes -> Then i copied all of my scenes over to another harddrive and deleted the scenes that were in the folder then after that adding 1 scene at a time in the folder and tried to Open OBS. It worked and I found out that it was on a Gaming Scene that there was an issue.

The sad part is that I didnt figure out what the issue was but everything is working now. And other thing - I reinstalled OBS, so every setting and so on was gone back to default. But lucky for me I did remember my settings :P

Reinstall doesn't reset anything, deleting or moving the data in %appdata%\obs-studio is what does that.
