Hi there! Have you tried running this from the command line (cmd)? Is any error message printed or shown?

I am pretty sure that you cannot simply run the obs64.exe. If you open the link in your start menu you'll see that it has the "Start in" property set. So you'll either have to change to that directory first or use the link instead. Both of these could work (I am using --help here for testing this):

cd "C:\Program Files\obs-studio\bin\64bit" && "C:\Program Files\obs-studio\bin\64bit\obs64.exe" --help
start "" "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\OBS Studio\OBS Studio (64bit).lnk" --help
