Question / Help Help! OBS closing unpredictably during game, still operating in Task Manager, but inaccesible

Hey everyone,

I'm currently recording and, for some reason, OBS has "closed" (off Windows toolbar, can't open) the but is still running, using the amount of memory space appropriate for the file that I'm trying to recover but is COMPLETELY unopenable. I will restart my computer, start the recording again, and the same thing will happen sometime during recording monitor or game. If it is still running in the background, can I save my recording by somehow stopping the recording? Also, what the heck could be happening here. This happens over and over, I have even reinstalled it.

There are no crash logs, like I mentioned it hasn't crashed - it just disappears from my toolbar along with being unable to maximize it/bring it back from wherever it went

Have you checked task view to make sure that it's not ending up in a hidden virtual desktop?

Also, what setup guide did you follow to configure it?
 
Uh I'm not sure. I have been using OBS for months successfully though. How would I see if it was a hidden virtual desktop? The issue only started today. Here are the rest of the logs in order, all today, i think all pretty much unsuccessful (resulting in corrupted files due to me giving up, shutting off pc)

Thanks I my settings* You might also want to take a look at this log, I forgot to include it and it looks weird:
