Hi: I am trying to present Powerpoint in presentation mode so I can still see presentation notes, while in Zoom - I have laptop and extra monitor
when I try to put Powerpoint setting to "browse by an individual window" (to show up in OBS recording window), it no longer allows me to select Presentation Mode (to see my notes) so I can either
Is there some other way I can offer this presentation to an audience, see my notes and still record?
thank you

IMHO you don't need PowerPoint to browse by an individual window. When in fullscreen presentation, have the Presentation Mode window at your external monitor and the presentation itself on your laptop behind the OBS Studio window. Have the Window Capture source point to the
POWERPNT.EXE]: PowerPoint presentation - name of the presentation.pptx window (I don't have an English PowerPoint version, so don't expect it to be literally this).

In the past we had difficulties on Windows 10 to capture this presentation, make sure Capture Method is not Automatic but Windows 10 (1903 and up).
