Some people NEED classic in order for it to work properly on their systems. Still, this is the "studio" help forum.

I'm definitely no expert, but usually that has to do with the .NET framework. Could try reinstalling .NET to see if that fixes the issue. You can follow the steps here:
https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/astebner/2008/08/28/net-framework-cleanup-tool-users-guide/

You would then have to reinstall.

kernelbase.dll IS a system file, however, so you may have to run sfc / scannow to get it working again if it's a problem with that module rather than the other drivers in the stack.

You can read about that here:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-ca...l-to-repair-missing-or-corrupted-system-files

But definitely try the .NET framework cleanup first. It takes a lot less time and might just cure the problem.

WHY?

Why do they need a program that hasn't been updated in over a year?
Why do they need a program that will NOT BE GETTING FIXES ANYMORE?

Please do not hijack another user's thread with your own questions.

In classic, you can modify the codecs used much more precisely than you can in studio, especially when it comes to custom output where you might not always want to use FFMpeg, for example. I also had a system last year that simply WOULD NOT WORK with Studio, and could only manage to record things via classic. I had to run custom codecs, and classic could support it.... studio does not.

It's also handy to run a version of classic for "recording only" or for "streaming only" which would stream or record to different sources and outputs than your one version of studio. A hack to basically running multiple instances.

Sometimes people have tons of sources and scenes they simply don't want to take the time to import into studio when it's working just fine for them. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Whatever the reason, there is a "classic" support forum for a reason. Clearly people still use it or have found reasons to use it.

Because it hasn't been retired like the program itself has.

There's a converter for that. Thanks for checking.

Citation of what? Plugins existing?

Yes? And it hasn't been retired because....? All together now.... "people still use classic for some reason!" Yay!

I didn't say they COULDN'T. What I said was that they simply don't want to take the time to import it. It's not about "can't" it's about "won't", because....
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Thanks for all the quotes :) Please PM me if you want to discuss Studio vs Classic further if it's still troubling you, as it's incredibly disrespectful to the OP.

OP asked a question pertaining to Classic... answered it in a way that would help them, even if it's an outdated program that they should be considering migrating from, and even if this thread should be moved to Classic support by mod.

If the answer is always "get the new program", that seems a little half-assed, EVEN IF THAT WOULD HELP THEM.

For example, a lot of people's problems with Windows XP would be fixed if they upgraded to Windows 10... but that doesn't mean there isn't a fix available for Windows XP, or that upgrading is the best choice for them.

Cheers, thanks!

Keep it civil, folks.

@Poet , if there are features or functions that are keeping you on OBS Classic, by all means please submit them so we can review accordingly.

Also, we still have a Classic support forum to encourage folks to upgrade to OBS Studio, and eventually this will be going away as most of the moderation staff have both collectively and independently decided that we are not spending much, if any, time supporting Classic anymore.

If you find that Classic is working great for your use cases, more power to you, we can't stop you from using it. But please understand if you run into any bugs or issues, the absolute first thing we'll say is "Upgrade to Studio and see if the issue persists there."
