OBS deactivates the ESC key

Hello forum,
I use OBS 27.0.1 64Bit under Windows 10 64Bit and so far I have had no problems with either recording or streaming.
Lately I've been playing old games like Team Apache, Janes Longbow2 and Janes F15. In these games you have to press ESC at the end of a mission to get back to the mission menu. But whenever I record with OBS, the in-game ESC key is deactivated and I cannot finish missions or switch to the menu.
If I play without OBS, the ESC key goes ingame, as soon as I start OBS, even without recording, the ESC is deactivated ingame.
A search with Google did not get me any further, so I have now signed up here and hope for help.

You might have assigned the ESC key to some action in OBS. Look into OBS Settings->Hotkeys.
