For live events (don't have a video URL for youtube-dl and alike download [there are several online services that do this], and hence need to record a screencast (with audio)), here are a couple of possible solutions, similar to capturing with OBS Studio:
:: If some (high) compression is ok, and framerate is not a bid deal -- or if you want to record some presentation of yours / train a session
* Start a meeting in MS Teams, share that screen or window, and record the meeting (your video will be available in MS Stream (private);
* Similar: use Zoom -- start a "Share Screen" meeting (use for the ID of the meeting, your Personal Meeting ID -> record the session, et voilà, once it finishes converting it, it will open the folder with a "zoom_0" mp4 video file;
:: Highest quality:
* Windows 10 has built in the "XBox Game Bar", which allows to record from browsers and other programs (it will not record the desktop or File Explorer, though).
Have fun,
Filipe
