...or just crop the image to the area of interest?

Of course, he may want to capture two windows like this:
   ______
  |      |
  |      |_____
  |______|     |
      |        |
      |________|

If so, there could be some "noise" in the unoccupied areas (upper right and lower left) of a rectangle that includes both windows.

Nevertheless, with only PrintScreen and Paint, you can snap the full screen, crop to a rectangle, and erase what you don't want.

Of course, there are lots of good, low-cost alternatives to the free tools.
