Question / Help OBS WONT OPEN

[John Oliveira]

OBS wont open. The program says its running in the backround but does not show up in task manager. I have tried reinstalling and nothing. I reset my PC once and it worked for a couple of hours but the issue has now come back. Can anyone help please?

Make sure that OBS is NOT running.

Find the OBS settings folder and rename it to obs-old and then try starting OBS.

OBS Studio's settings can be found in the following OS specific locations - Windows: WinKey+R > %APPDATA%\obs-studio | macOS: Cmd+Shift+G > ~/Library/Application Support/obs-studio | Linux: ~/.config/obs-studio

2 things
1> don't hijack other peoples' threads
2> make sure that if you had the websockets or NDI plugins installed before the update that you install THEIR updates too.
