Question / Help OBS just turned on the stream without me knowing!

I swear, a minute and a half after the end of my stream, your program turned on the video stream again. 2 minutes of my personal information has been compromised. I'm sure I couldn't accidentally turn on the stream myself, as it turns on with 2 clicks on different buttons. How do you explain that?!

and for the future
Settings --> General
Checkbox for "Show confirmation dialog when starting streams" set to enable
 
about your situation as i mention before
OBS can't start streaming without user interaction
this is only possible if YOU clicked on start streaming or press the hotkey
or installed a script/plugin or a software

and again a normal OBS installation can't start streaming wihout interaction
 
Hello. I was reviewing other forums on this and may have found what was possibly doing some of it but not why it did it every time. I never had this particular hot key setup but after the update a hotkey was setup that I press for other applications. the hotkey was set to start streaming. on top of that it would bypass the confirm start stream confirmation dialog box. I plan to be going back over a lot of my settings. perhaps it was the update or something with my pc. not sure.
