If unsure how to close them, open &#8220;Task Manager,&#8221; right-click on the application in question, and click &#8220;End Task.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Security Software Wrongly Detecting the Installer<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If the OBS installation stops midway, it may be because the antivirus software mistakenly identifies the OBS installer as a dangerous file and blocks it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>OBS is safe if downloaded from the official site, but as the installer is a .exe file, it occasionally gets flagged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are the steps to resolve this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1. Open the notification center and check for any messages like &#8220;Blocked a file associated with OBS&#8221;<br>2. Temporarily turn off your security software&#8217;s &#8220;real-time protection (monitoring capabilities)&#8221;<br>3. Re-run the OBS installer<br>4. Once installation is complete, turn the protection features back on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In most cases, this method will solve the issue. However, if you&#8217;re using a workplace computer or shared device, avoid changing settings yourself. If unsure, consult with someone knowledgeable or a system administrator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Lack of Microsoft Visual C++<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If OBS doesn&#8217;t launch post-installation, it might be due to the absence of a software known as &#8220;Microsoft Visual C++.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Receiving error messages like &#8220;Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime not found&#8221; or &#8220;Runtime Error&#8221; indicates a need to install Microsoft Visual C++.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u25bcSteps to Install Microsoft Visual C++<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1. Visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-us\/cpp\/windows\/latest-supported-vc-redist?view=msvc-170\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">official Microsoft website<\/a><br>2. Scroll to &#8220;Latest supported Visual C++ Redistributable version&#8221;<br>3. If your computer is 64-bit, select &#8220;x64 version&#8221; and download the file<br>4. Double-click the downloaded file to start the installation<br>5. Restart your computer after completing the installation, then launch OBS<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This auxiliary software is utilized by various Windows applications and essential not only for OBS but also for games and editing software, thus installing it is beneficial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re struggling with &#8220;OBS isn&#8217;t working!&#8221; first check if Microsoft Visual C++ is installed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Using a 32-bit Environment or an Old OS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you encounter &#8220;This app cannot run on your PC&#8221; while attempting to install OBS, it might indicate that your system is outdated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Particular caution is needed if using a &#8220;32-bit version of Windows&#8221; or an &#8220;Old OS no longer supported.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>OBS is exclusive to 64-bit versions from version 28.0 onwards. It won&#8217;t even start installation on a 32-bit environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To check if your PC is 64-bit, follow these steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u25bcHow to Check the Bit Version of Your PC (Windows)<br>1. Open &#8220;Settings&#8221; from the Start Menu<br>2. Select &#8220;System&#8221; \u2192 &#8220;About&#8221;<br>3. Check &#8220;System Type&#8221;<br>\u3000\u30fbDisplays &#8220;32-bit operating system&#8221; if it&#8217;s a 32-bit version<br>\u3000\u30fbDisplays &#8220;64-bit operating system&#8221; if it&#8217;s a 64-bit version<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you desperately need to use OBS on a 32-bit system, you can download an older version (e.g., 27.2.4) from the <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/obsproject\/obs-studio\/releases\/tag\/27.2.4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">official site<\/a> by searching for and installing the following file.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>OBS-Studio-27.2.4-Full-Installer-x86.exe<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, note that some functionalities might be limited in older versions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">OBS Installation Issues Can Be Identified from the Error Messages<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If an error occurs during the installation of OBS, try interpreting the displayed messages or warnings. In many cases, error messages state the cause of the issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, if you see a message saying &#8220;OBS files are being used by the following applications,&#8221; it likely means other applications are obstructing OBS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u25bcExamples of Interfering Applications<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Discord<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Google Chrome<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Microsoft Teams<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Adobe Creative Cloud<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>DeepL (may appear as CefSharp.BrowserSubprocess)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Microsoft Edge related (msedge.exe, msedgewebview2.exe, etc.)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These apps, which handle recording, audio processing, or similar tasks as OBS, can easily cause conflicts when run simultaneously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u25bcSteps to Address the Issue<br>1. Note the app listed in the error message<br>2. Right-click the icon in the notification area (task tray) at the bottom right of the screen to &#8220;Quit&#8221;<br>3. If still running, open Task Manager to forcibly end the app<br>4. Re-execute the OBS installer<br>5. If the app cannot be closed, try restarting the PC<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Error messages can be easily overlooked but are essential hints. It\u2019s important to calmly read the content and address the issues sequentially.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Common Pitfalls to Avoid When OBS Installation Fails<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When OBS installation fails, one might hastily assume there\u2019s an issue with the computer, but often the cause is operator error or overlooked steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are frequent unconscious mistakes and the problems they can trigger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Mistake<\/th><th>Resulting Problems<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Downloading from unofficial sites<\/td><td>Virus infections, nonfunctional installer<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Using outdated versions<\/td><td>Errors due to OS or driver incompatibility<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Attempting to install 64-bit OBS on a 32-bit PC<\/td><td>Displays &#8220;This PC cannot run this app&#8221;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Installing without administrative rights<\/td><td>Security may obstruct, causing stoppages<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Proceeding without disabling security software<\/td><td>Installer might be blocked midway<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Keeping configuration files during reinstallation<\/td><td>Previous bugs may persist<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>When one thinks &#8220;OBS is famous, so it\u2019s safe to download from anywhere,&#8221; they risk encountering viruses or fake installers if downloaded from unofficial sites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If installation issues arise, instead of immediately blaming the computer, it is advisable to verify if there\u2019s any oversight in the installation steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to Do if OBS Still Won&#8217;t Install?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If OBS cannot be installed after trying all the solutions, it might be due to deeper issues with Windows or application settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nevertheless, even if common solutions don\u2019t work, other users might have encountered the same trouble and shared their resolutions online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a final strategy, consider using Microsoft\u2019s official troubleshooting tools to address the problem sequentially without giving up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">For Mac Users, Focus on &#8220;Security Settings&#8221; and &#8220;Rosetta&#8221;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When installing OBS on a Mac, you might encounter the message &#8220;Can\u2019t open this app because it was not downloaded from the App Store.&#8221; This is due to Apple&#8217;s security features, and you can manually allow it to continue installation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s the specific procedure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u25bcHow to Allow OBS on Mac<br>1.

Select &#8220;Open Anyway&#8221; for the displayed OBS<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To run OBS correctly on a Mac with Apple Silicon, a software known as &#8220;Rosetta&#8221; is needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When launching OBS for the first time, if asked &#8220;Would you like to install Rosetta?&#8221;, select &#8220;Install.&#8221; Without Rosetta, OBS will not launch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Search for Similar Cases on Forums or GitHub<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If issues with OBS installation persist, visit the official OBS forum or GitHub where OBS users worldwide congregate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Given the vast OBS user base, it is likely that even rare issues have been encountered and resolved by others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Searching for similar symptoms might lead to posts with resolved solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u25bcCommon Research Sources<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/obsproject.com\/forum\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">OBS Official Forum<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/obsproject\/obs-studio\/issues\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">OBS GitHub Page<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>While mainly in English, tools like Google Translate make it easy to comprehend the content.

Press &#8220;Uninstall&#8221; to remove it<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For users of versions 22.0.2 to 23.0.2, initialization via the OBS uninstaller might not work properly, so follow these steps to delete the folder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1. Reopen OBS and select &#8220;File&#8221; \u2192 &#8220;Show Settings Folder&#8221; from the top screen<br>2. Delete the &#8220;obs-studio&#8221; folder within the opened folder<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After successfully installing OBS, refer to the following article for backing up your data to protect it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/alive-project.com\/en\/streamer-magazine\/article\/4354\/\">Complete Guide to Backing Up OBS: How to Restore and Recommended Plugins<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Manually Delete Unnecessary Plugins for a Clean Start<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While plugins can enhance OBS functionality, outdated or incompatible plugins might cause issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take a moment to check the plugins folder using the steps below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u25bcHow to Delete Plugins (Windows)<br>1. Open File Explorer<br>2. Enter the following path into the address bar and press Enter<br>\u21d2C:\\Program Files\\obs-studio\\obs-plugins<br>3. Remove the folder of any unused plugin names displayed<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If unsure about &#8220;unnecessary plugins,&#8221; consider the following criteria:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Clearly unused items<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Things you don\u2019t remember installing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Items with descriptions in English, making them unreadable or suspicious<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If uncertain, delete everything once and reinstall only the necessary items with the latest versions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you plan to organize your plugins, check out the article below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/alive-project.com\/en\/streamer-magazine\/article\/3387\/\">[A Must-Read for Streamers] Recommended OBS Plugins: Organized by Use Case<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Re-evaluate Differences Between Official, Steam, and Zip Versions if Issues Persist<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>OBS is available in Official, Steam, and Zip versions. If you&#8217;re encountering unexplained issues, reviewing which version of OBS you\u2019re using can be essential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below, we outline which users each version is intended for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Choose &#8220;Official Version&#8221; for Auto-Updates and Stable Operation<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The &#8220;Official Version&#8221; downloadable from the OBS official site automatically places all necessary files and offers the most stable operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since updates occur automatically, there\u2019s no hassle with manual updates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Problems like a blank screen or no audio can often be resolved by switching to the official version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Disengage from &#8220;Steam Version&#8221; if Steam-Related Launch Issues Persist<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The Steam version of OBS is convenient for game streaming but is prone to impacts from Steam updates or login statuses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you repeatedly encounter problems like &#8220;OBS suddenly won&#8217;t open&#8221; or &#8220;Settings are reset,&#8221; the Steam connection might be at fault.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Uninstalling the Steam version and switching to the official OBS might resolve these issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Zip Version Useful for Isolating Issues<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The zip version of OBS is a special format that can be launched without installation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It doesn\u2019t affect configuration files or registry (Windows internal settings), making it perfect as a &#8220;test tool&#8221; to investigate issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, if the &#8220;Official Version isn\u2019t working well and the reason is unknown,&#8221; testing a zip version can help determine if &#8220;settings are flawed&#8221; or &#8220;the PC environment is the cause.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reinstall OBS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If issues are insurmountable, reinstalling is the most certain approach after uninstalling. Combining this with settings initialization and plugin deletion provides a fresh start with OBS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Installation steps slightly differ between Windows and Mac, but overall, both processes are straightforward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>For Windows: Download the installer from the official site and complete it by clicking [Next] \u2192 [Install]<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>For Mac: Download the version that matches your OS (Intel or Apple Silicon) and simply drag to Applications<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>For detailed instructions, follow the steps outlined in the following link.
