Question / Help Laptop black screen with screen/window capture

[Ryujii92]

Hello!

My problem is, that i can use game capture(some games) but not screen/window capture. I did the thing in the nvidia 3d settings but its still not working.
I found out its because a laptop likes to use both the CPU and the GPU when playing games to decrease power usage.

I want to stream Sea of Thieves, with does not work properly if now done right(game and obs in same driver). I even installed obs on both C and D drivers but still no success. So I tried window/screen capture but it does not wort ether. So my question is, what I can do to fix that.

PS: this is my log file: https://hastebin.com/hacinerida

Thanks! =)

Sea of Thieves (the windows store game) REQUIRES obs to be installed to the DEFAULT location for the necessary security properties to be applied to the OBS install properly and automatically.

Windows Store (UWP) games currently require extra permissions to be able to capture. If OBS is installed in the default (C:\Program Files (x86)) directory, these will be applied automatically. If you installed OBS to a custom location, you will need to add the ALL APPLICATION PACKAGES security group to the obs-studio folder. Follow these steps:
- Close OBS if it is already open
- Right click on the obs-studio program folder, select properties, then click on the Security tab.
- Under the Groups or user names section, click on Edit...
- Click add, then type in ALL APPLICATION PACKAGES. Select Check Names and it should underline to show it was typed.
- Click OK, then Apply, then OK, and finally OK again.
- Restart OBS and attempt to capture the game again

Thank you Sea of Thieves works now: =)

But window capture still does not work. Is there a way to fix it.

You can't window capture ANY windows store apps at all.
