Installation and Configuration Notes for OBS Studio

By default the app will install under a obs-studio folder in the Program Files folder.

Project Evergreen

Project Evergreen AppTracker provides information and sources for installers for this app https://stealthpuppy.com/apptracker/#obsstudio

EXE based installer

The EXE installer supports silent installation, for example:

  • '/S' for silent (captial S)
  • '/S /D=C:\folder' to also set the installation folder.

Typical Configuration Items

This identifies the most commonly interesting configuration items in the application.

  • The application adds a second shortcut to the desktop (remove if not desired).
  • The application adds an Uninstall.lnk shortcut to the start menus (remove if not desired).
  • The application uses file-based configuration global.ini placed in a obs-studio subfolder of the user's AppData\Roaming.
    • It has an autoupdate setting to disable
    • It has as well as a first run setting you might disable.
    • It has a tray icon you might or might not want to disable.

Installed Components worth noting

  • There are no FTAs or Shell Extensions, or other integrations.
  • The installer does not add needed files to the AppData\Local folders, however there may be DirectX3D lock files present that should probably be removed when repackaging.
  • The installer does not add files to the AppData\Roaming folder (although the 'typical' configuration above does).
