Press the PRNT SCRN button on your PC.
Open a graphics program - I think Paint works OK.
CTRL-V to paste it in.
Crop as desired.

You probably have an extended keyboard where some keys are accessable using "control" or "Windows" symbol

Yes - I just tested it in Paint and it works fine.

Dunno why you can't press the button without seeing your keybaord, but FHF's post above is a way round it.
