Installing on Windows

Follow this guide to install OBS Plugin Installer on Windows 10 or 11. Download the recommended installer first, then use MSI only if your environment requires it.

Prerequisites

  • OBS Studio 28+ installed (30+ recommended)
  • Windows 10 and Windows 11
  • 64-bit systems with Intel and AMD processors
  • Active internet connection

Download options

Recommended for most users: .exe installer (NSIS). If your organization needs Windows Installer format, use the optional .msi package.

Windows installers

If the download does not start, please try again.

Step-by-step installation

1

Download the installer

Use the button above to download the recommended Windows .exe installer.

2

Run the executable

Open the downloaded installer and follow the setup wizard. We recommend the default install path.

3

Complete setup

Choose a user install (recommended) or system install if you manage a shared machine.

4

Launch and detect OBS

Open OBS Plugin Installer. It will scan for OBS Studio and prepare plugin directories automatically.

Microsoft Defender SmartScreen

If you see "Windows protected your PC", click More info and then Run anyway. This warning is common for new software releases.

Troubleshooting

Antivirus false positives

Some security tools may flag unknown installers. If needed, add an exception or temporarily disable real-time protection during install.

OBS path not found

If OBS Plugin Installer can’t detect OBS, ensure OBS is installed normally. For portable OBS installs, select the directory manually in settings.
