Start OBS with macro not possible

[Tophe77]

Hello

I would to start OBS with a macro touch on my keyboard

I use Icue with Corsair K55, I indicated in the software the path to OBS ( C:\Program Files\obs-studio\bin\64bit\obs64.exe )
But when I press the key to launch OBS a window indicates "failed to find locale/en-us.ini" "Failed to load locale"

I also tried with Logitech G Hub and a key of my mouse and with Razer Synapse with a key of tartarus...

But it's allways the same issue a window indicates "failed to find locale/en-us.ini" "Failed to load locale"

Someone can help me?

Your macro isn't trying to set the "Start in" location for the shortcut properly.

But how to resolve that?

I also try with Deck Board app and it's always the same ....

Try creating a shortcut to OBS on your desktop and launch that one.

I had a shortcut on my desktop. When i launch OBS with this shortcut there are no problems

OMG same! Everytime I try to launch the app it fails.
But I will set up a shortcut on my desktop like you guys suggested. Thanks! :)

The "Start In" path is required for OBS to launch properly. Your macro key software is not setting it, so it's launching OBS with a "Start In" path that is the macro key software's folder.

We can't provide support for third-party software here.

But as mentioned a couple of times, you need to have your macro software set the 'start in' directory correctly. If you do not know how to do this in your software, please reach out to the developer of that third-party macro software for assistance with their software.

For example, if I was writing a .BAT script, I would include:

cd C:\Program Files\obs-studio\bin\64-bit
obs64.exe

Thank you for your answers

I will find out how to specify the "start in" in the different software.

But I have this problem only with OBS, other software starts correctly when I only specify the path

The "Other software" you've been testing doesn't rely on the "Start In" path in the same way as obs does.

Did you find out? I have the same problem and don't know how to fix it.

Same, I'm curious if any answers were founded. Currently having this issue myself.

I found a work around, set in your shortcut's properties a shortcut key. I put mine as f17 then bind that key to your macro.

The language tool command is: start /d "C:\Program Files\obs-studio\bin\64bit" "" obs64.exe The only problem with it is that the program prompt stays on your window. If anyone has a solution, that would be great.
