Capture2Text is FOSS. It uses Tesseract as it's OCR engine, which is great as you can use different language data files to find the one that is the most accurate for your purposes. Source: over 2 years ago
Capture2Text is the simplest solution and it works surprisingly well with the Cold Steel/Hajimari text boxes... Once it runs in the background press a previously assigned hotkey and select the area on the screen to be captured. I recommend deactivating its popup window, you just want the text to be copied into the clipboard. Source: almost 3 years ago
You should have a look at Capture2Text and ShareX. They offer OCR translation (ShareX links to google translator in your browser, when you do OCR Translation, I think). Source: about 3 years ago

Hi OP. Maybe something like this? MenubarX. Source: over 1 year ago
Thank you very much for the detailed and insightful reply. The app in question I was pondering on whether to use or not is MenuBarX. It seems pretty useful, I can imagine a few use cases in which I would find it quite handy, and since I use Adguard I guess it would have also a decent ad/tracking protection. Source: over 1 year ago
