I recently upgraded my GPU from a 1660 to an RTX 3060. After I completed my installation all of my computer applications were working fine, including OBS Studio. I had StreamFX already installed as a plugin in OBS, but was unable to use it because my 1660 could not run StreamFX. I closed OBS Studio and reinstalled StreamFX , and after I installed the plugin, and opened OBS, my application kept crashing at startup. I have followed all of the directions in the previous threads for the kernellbase.dll and I cannot get anything to work. I have followed the following instructions and nothing:
Method 1: Register the .dll file.
I have also tried additional methods that did not work.
Method 1: Register the .dll file.
- Tap on the Windows key on your keyboard and type Command prompt.
- Right click and Run as administrator.
- Type: regsvr32 KERNELBASE.dll
- Restart the computer and check.
I have also tried additional methods that did not work.
- Scanned entire computer for viruses and other malware. Result: nothing
- Executed the sfc/scannow command. Result: Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations.
- Completed a system restore. Result: OBS still crashing
- Windows Driver Search for updates. Result: All Drivers were up to date.
- Not sure if this is the problem, but also attempted to update my ryzen 5 6-core processor using the AMD StoreMI Installer, and I keep getting the message: StoreMI requires at least one hard disk drive and one ssd to function. Please configure the system with such.
- Created new user account. In case there was user account corruption.
- Installed an in-place upgrade with windows 11. Result: 0x80070017 - 0x2000C The installation failed in the SAFE_OS phase with an error during APPLY_IMAGE operation.
