Hi
I have this issue when I want to record, the screen is all white.

I'm on a laptop, and I followed this thread: https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/laptop-black-screen-when-capturing-read-here-first.5965/, but it doesn't work for me.
I run my OBS in admin mode, so I really don't know what to do. It used to be fine, but now it doesn't. I reinstalled the app, and it still isn't fixed.

My specs are:
GPU - Nvidia Geforce 1050
CPU - i7-7700HQ
Ram: 8GB

This is how it looks:

Here are the logs:

Ok this is weird. When I maximised the OBS everything is fine, but It freezes when I restored the OBS to it's previous size. But the more weird thing is that the preview of the recording/stream freezes, but the recording/stream is fine, so this is more a bug now. I don't really know why that happended.

If you set OBS to only capture a (real, not borderless windowed) fullscreen game, OBS is only able to get an image as long as the game is actually running fullscreen. If you tab out to the desktop to check OBS, the game stops running fullscreen and OBS will start to show nothing. It will resume as soon as you restore the game running fullscreen. This is Windows graphics handling, no OBS issue.

If you had 2 monitors, you can move OBS to the second monitor and verify game capture live. But with only one monitor, you can only look into your recordings afterwards if there was captured something while the game was running fullscreen.
