Hi.
I have just had to do a fresh install of Windows 10 Creators update on my PC, and now OBS studio is not showing anything in Window Capture. I can still get it to do a display capture, but window capture seems to be doing nothing with games I am running.This is my last log file

and I have just uninstalled OBS Studio, and re-installed it, and this is my current log file as it is running right now

It was fine a few days ago, but since doing a re-install of windows it''s not working. Please advise me what is wrong

Edit - BTW it captures some other windows fine, just tested that with capturing file explorer, elgato sound capture window, but not Chrome for example, and not games I am running. Tried running SOMA just now as I have a steam and non steam version on my SSD, and neither of them worked

Chrome can't be window-captured without disabling hardware acceleration (in Chrome itself).

I am wondering if it's anything to do with these bits not loading? Or perhaps my settings on the Nvidia control panel. I just went and added OBS to it's program list, and left the settings as they came up, but I installed the GFX Card (Gigabyte GTX 1050ti) two weeks ago, and it has been fine without adding OBS to the control panel, so I can only think it's the windows update??

disable SmartScreen (different in Creators)
if using MSI Afterburner or RivaTuner -> update RivaTuner to v7.0.0.0b19

OK, so I disabled MSI Afterburnerr and MSI Live update (which was using 26% of my CPU), and now I can capture game windows. At least some of them. Just tried Counter-Strike Nexon zombies and that still just gives me a half white half black window, but others are now working. Thanks for the suggestion. Any idea why this was causing it to not work?
