Hey all, this article is for posterity only.

Been looking for a few hours trying to resolve an issue, and didn't find any helpful posts. So I thought I'd post one if anybody stumble upon the same issues.

SYMPTOMS: In MS Word from Office 365, and probably other recent programs, the drop-down menus (such as font selection) don't show in the capture.
In an older version of Word (namely 2010), the menus are recorded allright.

OS: Windows 7
GPU: GTX 750 Ti

USUAL WRONG FIX: Instead of using Window Capture, try using Display Capture. It's already what I was using, so no luck. Tryed everything else to no avail.

GOOD FIX: I had "Disable Aero" option checked within OBS (Settings > Video). I unchecked the option (so to keep Aero features as they are) and then my menus got recorded by the program.

Thank you much.

Best,

Ed.
