Why do I have this error in Chrome DevTools's Manifest tab?

Richer PWA Install UI won't be available on desktop. Please add at least one screenshot with the form_factor set to wide.

Richer PWA Install UI won't be available on mobile. Please add at least one screenshot for which form_factor is not set or set to value other than wide.

Can I generate these screenshow with pwa-asset-generator too?

You need to take screenshots of your app and add them to your manifest. PAG does not take screenshots of your app, and realistically can never do that because only you know which parts of the app you want to showcase. You can read more about the feature here: https://developer.chrome.com/blog/richer-pwa-installation/

Leaving this open because it might make sense for PAG to let the developer link to screenshots that should be included in the manifest.
