Hi Product Hunt! 👋 I'm Sakuya, a VTuber and former game developer in Japan, building tools as VtuberLab.
I made OBS Backup Manager after living the problem myself: you move OBS to a new PC, restore your settings… and half your scenes are broken, because OBS only stores file paths — the images, videos and BGM themselves live somewhere else, often scattered across your Downloads folder and random project folders. Collecting them all by hand is exactly the kind of chore you forget until it's too late.
So this app does the collecting for you. It scans your scene collections and profiles, finds every asset they reference, and bundles settings + assets into a single ZIP. On the new PC it restores everything and rewrites the paths, so your scenes just work. Anything it couldn't find is listed for you — no silent gaps.
A few honest notes:
• Plugins (VSTs etc.) still need to be reinstalled on the new machine — their settings are saved, but copying plugin binaries alone doesn't make them run.
• It's manual by design: you make a backup when your setup is in a good state, like a snapshot.
• It also ships with a CLI (status / create / list / restore, with JSON output), in case you want to drive it from scripts or AI tools.
It's $5 one-time for both the Windows and Mac versions, with free updates and no limit on how many of your own machines you use it on.
I'd love your feedback — especially from streamers who've survived (or not survived 😅) a PC migration. What does your current OBS backup routine look like?
