This article/section is a stub — some half-sorted notes, not necessarily checked, not necessarily correct. Feel free to ignore, or tell me about it.


The first question is what you want to record:

video devices (webcam, video capture devices, or such)
specific monitor (or program)

...because a lot of tools choose just one, and things that can do both are usually more work to learn.


Win10: "Windows Camera" in the Microsoft store, "Camera" once installed

video-device recorder
one-click recording, yet basically no settings beyond resolution


Xbox game bar

screen recorder
comes with windows, but probably not installed at work


OBS

screen/videodevice/other
flexible, but needs some initial learning and setup because of it
made for streaming, but also quite useful for recording (from various sources)
