If you have installed Microsofts Power Toys on Windows [1], you can win+shift+T and select any area on screen and windows will OCR it and store it on your clipboard.

It's not SOTA AI powered OCR, but works great for copying a link on a streamed tech talk or text from an application / website that tries to make text not-selectable.
