Win+PrtScr saves the screenshot as a PNG file in Pictures\Screenshots.
Windows also ships with a tool called Snipping tool[0], but that now says that it will be replaced by Snip & Sketch [1].
If you want to quickly take a cropped screenshot you can use Win+Shift+S. It only saves to the clipboard, but a lot of places, like imgur and Github, supports pasting images so I often find it more convenient than to have a bunch of old files cluttering the system.
