Immediate Crash on Startup

Hey, new here to the OBS forums but it seems most sensible to get help here. Was playing around with some VR the other night and I figured I'd try to setup OBS to capture it and maybe do a stream this weekend. When I opened OBS I had Steam VR running with my Oculus Rift S. The 'Woops, OBS has crashed' pop-up appeared right away, but was blocked by some other windows so I didn't initially see it. As I was tinkering with the scene setup, OBS worked perfectly fine, until spotted the pop-up. As soon as I acknowledged the pop-up, OBS crashed and now every time I try to restart it, whether in Safe Mode or normally, it crashes immediately after about 5 seconds. Most of the time I don't even get the pop-up asking me if I want to save the crash log. I have OBS updated to the latest version (as far as I can tell) and it's worth noting that I upgraded my Nvidia drivers before I had even started my VR headset. I do have a few crash logs attached that I managed to grab tonight when I tried to start OBS. I tried an uninstall/reinstall, but it's possible I might not have done it properly, as I'm not the most tech savvy. Do I need to roll back my graphics drivers? I've used OBS perfectly for almost 2 years now and have never run into this problem before. Thanks for any help and feedback!
