Problems with Window Capture on Big Sur

After upgrading to macOS Big Sur, the Window Capture feature on OBS no longer shows Powerpoint, Adobe Acrobat, or Preview as available windows. I have tried checking the box for "Show windows with empty names", but that doesn't fix the problem. I have also tried using Display Capture - Crop to Window, but these windows are not available there either.

For others having this problem, it seems to have something to do with macOS's multiple desktop feature (where multiple desktops are used on a single screen). OBS can only find windows that are on the same desktop. However, I am also having the problem that OBS displays over all other windows, so that I can't easily work with the other programs. Not ideal, but workable.
