This only records the whole screen. You might want to try OBS Studio?

OBS studio is really a good free software!! It has a lot of features and could be a bit intimidating at first but I got nothing but praise for them

I will use OBS for recording tech training sessions. It's a robust app that can be set up for anything I need. I develop open source software in a linux desktop environment, and am thrilled by the capabilities of this program to record my workflow.

I commend the author of this post for creating a simple tool for windows. Anything that helps is capture and share knowledge is a win.
