I have a relativley strong PC and I am having serious issues with OBS, which is a first. I've been streaming for about two years now and this is the first time I've been having issues.

I have tried to find the root cause but nothing works, even reinstalling windows and using ddu to wipe my gpu

Please help becuase the PC freezes to the point where I have to force shut down.
 
You are one of many with StreamElements plug-in having issue... coincidence... I think not
and that plug-in pukes all over your log .. unfortunately ... I haven't had enough coffee to punish myself by trying to dig through the resulting log.
Try disabling/uninstalling that PoS plug-in and see what happens

I'm not familiar with this plugin, but if you know about it's configuration and how to resolve this folder does not exist and path does not exist errors...
 
Could my webcam crash the PC as well or potentailly hardware damage?

If your PC was already near overload, and you add processing for webcam video, could that push it over the edge of stability? maybe... shouldn't but if poor drivers, or any running thing poorly written.... anything possible. Typical overwhelmed system simply become unresponsive until they catch up, but plenty of poorly written s/w, so crashes are far more common when PC at sustained 100% CPU

Damage hardware? shouldn't

My PC is never overloaded, I have ryzen 7 5800x and a 3070, so the CPU never rises above 30%, well thats at least what obs displays.

Are there any fixes I can do in the short term, should I reinstall windows from scratch?
