OBS becomes unresponsive after recording

I use OBS strictly for recording, and normally that works just fine. Two days ago OBS started refusing to record a second time if I minimize the program it becomes completely unresponsive and the only way I can close it is by going into the task manager and ending the task manually. I've tried doing clean installs with the most recent version, installing previous versions, nothing makes any difference.

here? where is here? This forum? Perhaps I should have mentioned that I did the obvious thing and searched this site and could not find anything that seemed even similar to my problem, hence why I made my post asking for help.
Sorry, I'll try to be clearer next time.
 
Yes. Here in the forum.
Okay, you are right. To be honest, the threads mentioned are weeks or months aged. But the "i can't record a second time..." is the common principle on that. In every case it was ryzen and radeon combination with recent amd software updates. For sure.




In the moment i can't find anymore the actual hint what exactly version of AMD software (to downgrade to) helped. But there was.

UPDATE: I think i found it.
 
Thank you. This wasn't quite the solution I needed, but it pointed me in the right direction and so far I no longer seem to have this issue. Turns out mine was driver related, but I think it had to do with windows rolling back the driver to an older version. If I can find the link to how I fixed this I'll come back and post it, but I've already rebooted and I don't keep browser history so I'm not exactly sure if that'll happen. Best I can describe it, I uninstalled the Radeon Software and reinstalled the most up-to-date version. At the end of the process it told me Windows was automatically rolling back the driver and it gave me a link on how to correct this issue. I followed that guide, installed the Radeon Software again, restarted my system and the issue appears to be solved.
