  • - OBS Studio cannot find VCRUNTIME140_1.dll.

At the end of downloading OBS Studio, I get a message that it is unable to find VCRUNTIME140_1.dll. I have redownloaded it 6 times and still get the same message.

How can I rectify this problem?

Thank you,

OBS Studio - My preview screen is square.

My preview screen is square. And I can't access my settings. And I know that Obs themselves won't see.

  • - Registration won't accept my old account and I don't get confirmation email.
  • - Camera not detected on Windows 10; USB port works with other devices.

I can't link to your support. When I try to register, it doesn't accept my old registration. It wants to send a confirmation to my email, but I never receive the confirmation. Yes, I've checked the spam folder. I'm caught in a loop of trying to re-register. However, it says my email is already used. I can't get on Discord (not your problem), same issue. Can we reset or erase anything to do with my email and start fresh? My program is not recognizing my overhead camera. I'm on a browser, using Windows 10. When I unplug the camera from the USB port, it doesn't alert me or detect it. My USB port is functioning well. I can unplug the mouse from another USB port and plug it into the one I used for the camera, and it detects it. Restarting the computer doesn't help.

Help please,

Mike

User's recommendation: Good when it works
