Question / Help OBS crashes on startup after updating?

[rasu]

OBS was working fine until I updated, now I can't seem to have it start up.
I have no idea where to start looking for the problem so any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated.

PS I'm not the best at tech so sorry in advance if I seem a bit slow on answering seemingly obvious questions o)--<
I'll do my best to not seem too incompetent

Make sure your AMD video drivers are up to date.

If this doesn't end up solving the issue, you can switch to a different encoder in Settings -> Output.

Thanks everyone for the replies. For some reason when I run OBS Studio (32bit) it doesn't crash? The display capture is black but at least I can open the program. I still have no idea why 64bit crashes on startup as all my drivers are up to date too.

Also Windows is out of date, and you probably have Game Mode on by default and cannot be switched off. This negatively impacts OBS performance. Separate from your issue, in all likelihood, but you may want to look at it.
