Most of the time, people use OBS for their Twitch stream. A lot of the major streamers on Twitch use this very app. There are times when OBS will fail to load a Twitch channel leading to some pretty frustrating moments.
Why is OBS saying it failed to load the channel?
Here are a few reasons OBS failed to load channel information for Twitch:
Bug in the current version: The issue could arise due to a bug in the installed version of OBS, and a patch for it should, most likely, be underway. Lack of permissions: If OBS doesn’t have the necessary permissions, it may fail to load channel information for Twitch. Running the program as an administrator should fix things. Corrupt browser cache: In some cases, a corrupt browser cache, too, could lead to the problem.
How do I fix failed to load channel information on Twitch OBS?
1. Update OBS
2. Start OBS with admin privileges
3. Enable two-factor authentication on Twitch
4. Clearing out browser cache
Why does OBS say failed to fetch settings from Twitch?
Just like being unable to obtain channel information, there are instances where Twitch can’t get the settings from your copy of OBS. The solutions for this problem are the same as those we just covered. Running OBS with administrator privileges and updating the app are two of the best things you can do. We also recommend uninstalling and reinstalling OBS. Feel free to leave a comment below if you have any questions about other apps or if you have some that you recommend.
