OBS is now crashing on startup for me, wont even load. I'm on version 20.0.1. Thanks for any help.

Windows 10, Intel i7

File upload is failing so here is a link to the crash log as a gist. https://gist.github.com/MrDoctorJ/e35c33302241b872ab999cc3a79270db

Update: re-running the 20.0.1 installer checking the "Launch OBS" box will start the application, but after closing it crashes again when trying to open it back up.

OBS is running out of memory because you're using the 32bit version. Use 64bit OBS instead, you should be fine.

EDIT: To clarify, when you reinstall and launch from the installer, it defaults to the 64bit version. You must be using a custom shortcut that still points to the 32bit version when you launch it manually after.

You're right, somehow my shortcut link was to 32 bit. Using the 64 bit version works. Thanks a lot.
