If you're reading this I'm still fingers crossed, letting laptop finish "stopping recording...", so pls advise
TLDR
I'm using MKV format but even the partial file is absent...?? My laptop specs are mid-range at-best but if OBS is still currently using 35% of GPU resources in Task Manager (I selected GPU encoding OBS setting), will this eventually finish? And did pressing "stop recording" while the recording was paused break it?
Laptop Specs
Acer Aspire 5 Slim Laptop, AMD Ryzen 7 3700U, RX Vega 10 Graphics, 8GB DDR4, 512GB SSD
Performs fairly poor on CPU benchmark

^ use Ctrl + F to search for "recording start" to see healthy 2min test recording that worked fine
from the recording start to current latest entry:

(Reply if you wanna see anything else, OBS allows me to look at and change most settings, while "stopping")
Task Manager

RAM is being used but disk writing is at 0%............. that has to be a bad sign...
pls OBS veterans pls halp
thx in advance for halp
Edit: even though log says "unpaused" OBS still shows in UI that it's paused
Edit: some user said press again to force stop recording, I did do that earlier and button became permanently blue (instead of becoming blue during click and then returning gray)
