-I've set both OBS and Chrome to open as admin
-I've disabled all extensions in chrome and restarted my system
-I've used another browser in Edge and Explorer
-I've enabled javascript
I still get the “Couldn’t sign you in. You are trying to sign in from a browser or app that doesn’t allow us to keep your account secure. Try using a different browser.” window when I interact.
I've hit the search bar and google and idk if I'm not searching it right but I can't seem to find the answer
 
I think it happens because of a specific hard-coded User-Agent Header. Anyone knows is that possible to configure/change User-Agent in some configuration?
 
Since this is the first google result for "obs can't sign into google", I just thought I'd post my fix:
Change the properties for OBS's launch by specifying the user agent, like so:

I was a bit tired but managed to add chat with the ability to write.
1. I did it as a colleague, I added a higher one to the OBS shortcut (--user-agent = "SuperUser") and then reset the OBS,

I added the address to View -> Docks> Custom Browers Dock ... in the place of URL "https://www.google.pl/ "
2. Then I applied and carried out a standard login to the googl account of powiozaneko with the Youtube channel (if your YT channel is a brand account, then change the URL to https://www.youtube.com/ and log into the brand account)
3. Then remove (--user-agent = "SuperUser") from the OBS shortcut and restart OBS
after restart, you can boldly insert a YouTube chat link into the URL and enjoy the logged in chat.
