Im very new to OBS Studio and Im having a bit of trouble with the display capture. Yesterday, it was working very well, but when I went to OBS Studio today, it wouldn't show my screen on display capture, only my webcam view. I was wondering if any of you have a solution, or advice. (it only showed a black screen)

Laptop? Black screen when capturing? Read here first.
Depending on your Windows version and what sources you wish to use, you may need to set OBS to run on a specific GPU. Not sure which Windows version you have? Press Windows+R and run "winver". For Windows 10 1909 or newer: Open Settings and search for "Graphics Settings". Select "Classic App"...

Please post a log with your issue! Here's how...
OBS Studio creates a log file each time you run it which contains very useful diagnostic information. Without a log file, it's much harder for any support volunteers to figure out problems and your post may be ignored. To upload a log file, go to the Help menu > Log Files > Upload Last Log...
