Hi,
I know it's an old topic, but I've always some trouble with vmix trying to capture a game running on the same pc.
I've this problem with multiple games ( not all, but several including DCS and Star Citizen )
I try to use the WindowsGraphicsCapture method as well as the other, but nothing changes, I can only see the desktop, also trying using capture the whole screen method, when alt-tab on games, I continue to see only the desktop underneath.
My system is Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019 ( Build 1809 ), with an RTX2080Ti and latest studio driver

This is a weird issue. Have you tried using a different program? Maybe there is an issue related to that and it has a bug. I get it that is so annoying, especially when you need it the most. I am playing World of Warcraft from time to time, and sometimes I am recording my playthrough. One time, I've found a mythic 15 carry and I was so excited, but the recording program crashed and I have no footage left of finding it. It simply happens and there isn't much that you can do about it. You have to keep trying again

I just posted this question, did you find a solution yet? I just got vmix and like a lot of things about it over OBS, but this was something that I so far cant find. OBS has a few options for this like a game capture that you can select a game.
I play older games and when I do, I dont feel like setting up my second PC. I just use 1 monitor. One game I play, only does full screen as well. When I go back to watch, it only shows the desktop itself and not the game. You can hear the game being played but not see it.
