1. OBS is not running as Administrator. This can lead to OBS not being able to Game Capture certain games. If you are not running into issues, you can ignore this. If you are using Display Capture because Game Capture doesn't work, try this. If so, remove Display Capture from the scene and then add Game Capture. Do not use Display Capture unless you need to capture Windows stuff or as last resort. To run OBS as Administrator, right click on the OBS shortcut, properties, advanced, check box, ok, apply, ok.
2. If streaming, be aware that Lenovo Vantage / Legion Edge is installed and is known to cause connection issues while streaming. Open Lenovo Vantage and set the "Network Boost" feature to disabled when streaming with OBS.
3. Your log contains no recording or streaming session. Results of this log analysis are limited. Please post a link to a clean log file.
To make a clean log file, please follow these steps:

1) Restart OBS.
2) Start your stream/recording for at least 30 seconds. Make sure you replicate any issues as best you can, which means having any games/apps open and captured, etc.
3) Stop your stream/recording.
4) Select Help > Log Files > Upload Current Log File. Send that link here.

22:53:50.447: Lenovo Vantage / Legion Edge is installed. The "Network Boost" feature must be disabled when streaming with OBS.
...
This message (warning/reminder) in OBS log means that the service named "FBNetFilter" (from the "Lenovo Vantage / Legion Edge" feature driver) is running on your PC. When mentioned feature enabled, this service can change priority of the network packets in favor of the game (OBS packets may hold for longer). OBS itself do not analyses if service do something or not. So, it just reminder. If service do nothing - ignore this warning/reminder.

Some features of modern PCs are not good for streamers, they may be good for gamers. For example, when you want to share your gaming experience you should capture/encode at fixed framerate (capped game's fps and not adaptive synchronization, aka "G-SYNC" or else), but when you playing a game you only looking for low response time. When you are using same PC for streaming (single PC setup) your network adapter is shared between the game and OBS - each application "wants" to prioritize itself over else. And so on.

OBS log has no streaming session in it. Please, find OBS log file (by time and date) from actual streaming session and attach it to your post.
