Taking Screenshots/Screengrabs/Snapshots
In most cases, pause the video you are playing on the screen and hit Alt-Print Screen. You can then open an image editor, such as Microsoft Paint. Copy and paste this screen capture into Paint, and edit out anything you do not want to show.
If you are using Windows Media Player, make sure you disable overlays (Tools -> Options -> Performance -> Advanced -> uncheck "Use Overlays"). If you do not do this, the Print Screen method will not work.
If you have VLC, you can just use (Right click) Video - Snapshots
