Does anyone know how to "cast" a screen via Chromecast without using a browser?

Does anyone know how to "cast" a screen via Chromecast  without using a browser? I figured out how to cast my Android screen,  which is awesome, but not my laptop screen. This is a Level IV Non-Emergency. :)

    It was my understanding that there was some sort of icon on the browser tabs that could be cast.

    Yes, there is an icon for casting a browser, which is great, but I'm also looking to cast things like spreadsheets, PowerPoint, etc., It does let me cast any screen from my smartphone, though.

    Mark Barrus I don't believe you can send windows to your chromecast. Now if your laptop were running "chromium"....
