Taking a screenshot on a MacBook Pro running Windows is very similar to taking a screenshot on a Windows PC. You can take a screenshot using the following steps:

1. Press the "Print Screen" button on your keyboard. This will capture a screenshot of the entire screen.

2. If you only want to capture a portion of the screen, press the "Windows + Shift + S" keys simultaneously. This will open the Windows Snipping Tool, which allows you to capture a selected portion of the screen.

3. If you prefer to use a third-party tool, you can download and install a screenshot tool like Greenshot or Snagit. These tools offer more advanced options for taking and editing screenshots.

4. Once you have taken a screenshot, it will be saved to the clipboard. You can then paste the screenshot into an image editing tool like Paint or Photoshop, or into a document or email.

5. If you want to save the screenshot as an image file, open an image editing tool and paste the screenshot into the editor. Then save the image as a file in the desired format (e.g. JPEG, PNG, BMP, etc.).

Note:  that the location where the screenshot is saved may depend on your specific Windows settings. By default, screenshots taken using the "Print Screen" button are saved to the Pictures folder in the Windows File Explorer.
