OBS Crashes my computer.

Hello. For this last week, ever since the most recent Windows Update, OBS has a tendency to crash my computer whenever i close it. Doesn't matter what I do, there's an 80% chance it crashes it, and I've tried everything.

Every now and then, it fails to crash, which confuses me even more.

I'm able to carry out my recordings and Twitch Streams perfectly fine (though I have to double check my recordings before closing OBS, otherwise they corrupt), it's just AFTER I'm done and close OBS that it gives me problems.

No other program causes me any issues similar to this, so I'd like to at least figure out why this happens!

I also don't ever get a crash report from these, due to crashing my entire computer, so can't attach those!

OBS literally can't crash the computer. If it does, everyone should have the same issue.
Most commonly this problem is caused by a failure on the GPU driver, the operating system itself, another program causing the issue, a plugin you installed, etc.-

A log file from one of the sessions when this occurs is needed.

I got no other plugins installed, but everything else would make sense. Again, this started happening as soon as the recent Windows Update

I had a feeling OBS wasn't directly responsible, but it was the only one that caused me these issues, so It made sense to ask around the Forums here. I'm not the absolute best when it comes to computer stuff, so simple stuff like this tends to stump me
