OBS says its crashing when I close it? Not sure if I should be worried about it....

I have been trying to delete the Atrium plugin lately. Deleting it the dll and pb files from 32 & 64 bit folders seems to not do it as I still see it show up on the plugins manager but it just states that its "missing" with it unchecked. I reinstalled it just for the sake of it and disabled it in the plugin manager. Once i close OBS it says something along the lines of "oops something went wrong and generating crash report."

Thank you for your time!

Try to launch OBS in the safe mode (no plugins loaded) when it asks you to launch "normally" or "safe mode". Usually, without the plugins, OBS closes without the program crash.

Because, this crash report:

...

points to render intrusive plugin (that made broken OBS render on application close). You have many of such plugins installed and loaded, so it is hard to say which one fails here.

I had the thought of taking off every plugin and starting fresh in the back of my mind but dreaded the thought of doing everything over again. I suppose its just the better option and I will just take the time to do it so I dont have to worry about this anymore. Thanks for the information I truly appreciate it!

You can try OBS in portable mode and add plugins one by one (still some plugins can be loaded via the "OBS_PLUGINS_PATH" environment variable, so always check what was loaded - can be checked in the log, OBS portable has own logs).
