Question / Help Windows 10 Black Screen when using Game Capture on Windows 10 Games

[Mordensinia]

Hi,

recently I switched to Windows 10. Sadly I've encountered some bugs with Win10 and OBS and I just don't know how to fix them I found nothing on the Internet. Everytime I try to record a Windows 10 Game (e.g. Forza Horizon 3, Motorsport 6 or even Minecraft) the Game Capture shows the Game Window as available but all it shows in the preview and the recording is a black screen. Same thing goes for Window Capture. When I use Display Capture I can record these games but the performance is horrible. When recording any other game via Game Capture OBS Studio it just works fine and runs smooth as hell but when it comes to Win10 games it just doesn't work whatsoever. Hope someone can help me in any way^^.

My Specs:
i5 4670
GTX970
16GB Ram
Win10 (64-bit) 15063.540

OBS Settings:
1920x1080 with 60FPS
NVEHC H.264
CBR 50000
(^hope this is everything you need to know^)

Thanks in advance! :)

Is obs installed to the default location?

Is obs installed to the default location?

Yes it is. The Path is C:\Program Files (x86)\obs-studio\bin\64bit

Make sure that OBS is running as admin. After that, post your OBS log from the attempt *use current instead of last log)

I got it working now I reinstalled OBS just a couple more times and now it works just fine. Thanks again for the great help! :)
