Server 2.4.1 not running

Win10
when I launch server, the window will pop up for an instant then goes away. I have no issues running Client (after downloading the missing .dll files)

I was getting a bad image error message when launching server, so I re-installed Windows (updated with the media creation tool, not a clean install)

I am running Windows 10 N, not sure if that matters.

Caspar is writing a log-file, maybe there it tells you what goes wrong.

i just realized the system has an Intel card, not NVidia if that matters
I’ll check the log file but I’m pretty sure i won’t know what I’m looking at, lol.

this is what the log says. I see where the error starts but don’t know why it says “D:”…

any idea?

I do see mention of vcruntime140_1, that was one of the dlls I had to install to get client running

Have you tried „Run as Administrator“ that sometimes helps.

I think that anything after here is being misleading. But I couldn’t say why it decided to start shutting down before fully starting up.

It does require opengl 4.5, which your gpu appears to only support up to 4.3, maybe that could be the problem?

well if it requires opengl 4.5, but I can only use 4.3, I’d say that yes that is a problem, lol.

let me confirm that

Share the config file I think you do something wrong on the config file
