Help with OBS Crashing on Startup

[CLRgaming]

Hello all, I feel like such a Noob! I have tried to trouble shoot to the best of my ability. I recently added a new graphics card - after which OBS continues to crash on me. The drivers are up to date. I have uninstalled and reinstalled OBS. I have attached a copy of the crash log. Any help you can give this helpless girl would be much appreciated - so I can get make to making content. I hope you have a great day, thanks!

The crash is caused by the audio filter from NVIDIA (new implementation in new OBS). Either try to remove the Filter (likely 'Noise Suppression') from the source or try to update the NVIDIA effects SDK:

OBS wont start, even in safe mode

I upgraded my GPU today from 3060ti to 4070ti Super, all graphics drivers up to date ect but for some reason OBS now just crashed instantly on start. It will load the window but totally white screen for a few seconds while not responding then will close. Log file attached I'm not sure what...

OBS crashing

Opening OBS both normally and in safe mode results in it crashing.

i recently had to reinstall my obs and obs is crashing if someone does not mind helping me that would be great

Also, can you attach the session log as well? OBS session logs can be found in the: %APPDATA%\obs-studio\logs folder. Recent version of OBS way more verbose on logging the SDK versions and other additions, so it may help to find out why it fails (or at least some developer may want to look at the issue if it still exist).
