So Basically About A Week Ago I Recorded A Section For My Video And Everything Saved Properly, I Could Watch The Video It Was All Good, Today I Recorded The Last Section Of The Video And Was Ready To Go Edit But I Could Not Find That Video That Was Fine Earlier. The Recording Was Called "Recording (24)" But Now The Video That Is "Recording (24)" Is The Next Section Of The Video After The One That Vanished. It Seems As Though The Newer Recording 24 Replaced The old One And I Have No Idea Why Or How. It's Not That Big Of A Deal As I Can Re Record It But I Would Be Nice To Be Able To Get It Back. Thanks In Advance

OBS Studio recordings can be found by selecting File > Show Recordings. The output path can be changed under Settings > Output.

If you didn't change any of the defaults, OBS won't overwrite or move/delete/change any of your existing recordings.

You should not be using OBS Classic anymore.

If you are using OBS Classic, this version has not been in development for some time. It is strongly recommended that you update to OBS Studio. Links to download can be found here: https://obsproject.com/download

Further information on why you should update (and how) can be found here: https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/how-to-easily-switch-to-obs-studio.55820/

As a mentioned, OBS can't affect any of your old recordings by default. So it was either moved accidentally, or deleted by some other process.
