How to Share Screen (Laptop/Desktop) via OBS

Open OBS and click on a “Scene” from the list for which you want to add “Display Capture” or ‘Window Capture” as a source.
Then, click on the “+” icon under sources.
Click on “Display Capture”. You can capture the entire display of your laptop/desktop screen and Livestream it.
If you want to capture a specific window, for example, your web browser (i.e., Google Chrome, Firefox, etc), you can click on “Window Capture”.
