OBS Not Working At All

Hi All,

So tonight I've started to have extreme issues with OBS. First, I was trying to record a video and noticed that the audio through my mic wasn't being recorded, even though OBS itself was clearly showing audio coming through. After exhausting all of my options within the app, I decided to uninstall but keep all of my settings - which didn't work. I then uninstalled everything, including my settings. This also didn't work, even after updating the app and restarting my computer. To top it off, OBS now does not even pick up on my scenes, instead showing a white screen. Beyond that, any time I try to close the app, it completely freezes and I have to force the app to close and report to Microsoft. Nothing that I have done or read about doing has worked, so I figured I'd make my own post to try to get some help. Also, everything on my computer - such as windows and my GPU drivers - have all been updated. There's nothing wrong with my system, only OBS as an app. Any help would be much appreciated!

Make sure you didn't changed or untick the selections for audio tracks in Advance Audio Properties.
Normally should be ticked track 1, unless you want to separate channels and record several audio tracks for later editing.

Also, make sure you selected the track(s) you want to record in Output settings.

That stuff is all in order. The main issue is that whenever I load up OBS now, there's only a bright white screen, and nothing changes, even when I try to make a new scene source. Furthermore, anytime I try to check file integrity or exit the app, it completely freezes up and won't work. Basically OBS has just completely shut down and won't work, and I have no idea as to why. Everything is fine on my end.

sound like hardware problems, check Windows, graphics driver uninstall (remove from from system) and install older version.
White screen is problem with graphics card and driver.
