If you sure that components installed then simply unpack the .zip archive of the program (https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/releases) to any folder and run OBS Studio (obs64.exe) if it fails - it will show to you which runtime is missing.

im missing api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0.dll ? where can i download this file?

It is part of the Windows. What Windows version? (in general, you may find it yourself: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2999226/update-for-universal-c-runtime-in-windows Microsoft Download Center section or by windows update, I think)

Windows 7 Ultimate If i update my windows will it be enough to fix it?

Then from the link above, choose: "All supported x64-based versions of Windows 7" (or KB2999226) and "All supported x86-based versions of Windows 7" packages files - you need to try to install both of them.

Hi, I'm using Windows 7 SP1 x64 (on this PC, I haven't run Windows Update since 2013 - using it only offline for one job (DJing), I have different PC for other things) and here's how you can run latest OBS Studio version if you haven't updated your Windows 7.
Download Visual C++ 2015-2019 as recommended.
Download this pack with DLL files and copy them into Windows/System32
Install OBS.

Please use it at your own risk, it worked for me, but I cannot guarantee it will work for you.
