CRTL + Printscreen makes a screencap of the active window **only**.
If you need to choose what area to use any differently, just do caps of the entire screen and use photo editing software later to crop out what you don't need.

Use printscreen just as you are doing.
Open Paint and Edit->Paste (you will get the entire screen.
Choose the se,ection tool and cutout the portion you want.
Then File->New (donot save original screen)
Then Edit->Paste
