[STUDIO] - Unable to capture Steam Games on W10

Hey guys. I have recently been trying to capture CS:GO on OBS Studio. It came up with a black screen and it didn't work so I decided to investigate.
It turns out that in order to run my game I need to open it as an administrator.
I confirmed but this by trying to do the same thing with the game "Minecraft" which is outside of Steam.
Minecraft required me to open OBS-Studio as an administrator before it would work so I thought this would be an easy fix for Steam games which are ran in full screen.

I was sadly incorrect...
It turns out that running Steam itself as administrator did not fix the problem.
I then thought I had to open the game itself as an administrator but it seems like that is not an option on Windows 10.
Many people have also tried to open up Steam games on W10 as an administrator but they could not get it to work either.

So as of now I am stuck with a game which I cannot record. I could of course set it to windowed mode but I would loose some performance which to me means quite a lot (specially when recording 1080p 60fps)

Any help is much appreciated and I will do anything to make this work.

PS: I have closed Razer Synapse (Some people said that could cause the issue as well)

It seems like I am unable to upload a file so here is my log and a screenshot of obs:

EDIT: It seems like the files were uploaded even though it did not show me anything. My apologies

Do you have two game capture sources in the same scene collection? It looks like it based on your screenshot. They are most likely conflicting with each other and trying to hook the same process. Remove one, or just make a new scene collection and add a single game capture source to it to test.

If your games are running as admin you may also need to run OBS Studio as admin for them to be hooked successfully.

I added that extra scene to target a game itself because the fullscreen games did not work. I personally cannot run CS:GO as an administrator due to the feature being removed on Windows 10 for Steam games. Running OBS normally did not fix it, either did the new scene :(
