Question / Help Newbie issue: "Starting the output failed."

I have the game I want to record showing up in the recording area thing. Had to use Window Capture- even though it recognized it as a game, it wouldn't show up. I just checked my video drivers because Windows Game Bar started having similar issues. It appears to be recognizing and seeing everything, but whenever I try to record, it says "Starting the output failed." I assume this is an issue on my end rather than OBS, but I'm out of my depth trying to figure it out. I just wanna put some games on youtube, man!
