Bug Report OBS Studio not capturing a game I want to record/stream

So when I try to record/stream. I go on properties of the game capture and click 'Capture Specific Window' and leave all the others same. And it just stays black and I can't do anything. I tried re-downloading OBS, restarting PC, deleting scenes.
It's unknown.

But it's not black for some steam games like:
Garry's mod
Counter Strike Global Offensive.

I hope this helps the devs to fix the bug.

There is a bug related to the win 10 creators update:

Try using display capture till it's fixed.

From your log, it looks like you are playing the game fullscreen, but trying to capture it while it is alt+tabbed? Game Capture cannot capture fullscreen games while they are minimized, as nothing is being rendered to capture.
