How to create a .DMP file if OBS doesn't start

If OBS doesn't open when you double click it, there is likely a crash or conflict happening very early in the startup phase. If a developer has asked you for an SPE .DMP file, this is how to create one.

  1. Download and run https://obsproject.com/downloads/SPE-Enable.reg to enable the .DMP creation.

  2. Try to open OBS. You should get a notification like this:

  3. Press Window+R, and enter "%TEMP%\Silent Process Exit"

  4. Zip up the folder and upload it to a file sharing site such as Google Drive or Dropbox.

  5. Send a link to the .DMP file to whoever requested it. Avoid linking it in public as it may contain sensitive information such as your username or stream key.

  6. Download and run https://obsproject.com/downloads/SPE-Reset.reg to turn off the .DMP creation.
