On the windows, it is simple to take a screenshot. Press PrtScn to take a picture of the full screen (copied to the clipboard). Windows + Shift + S will open the Snipping Tool and allow one to use a particular area. To take an active window, press Alt + PrtScn. It is possible to paste screenshots into programs such as Paint or Word.
