Running under Windows, I want to mark up the screen sometimes but can't
find a utility that does this one simple thing?

I use "whiteboard" software for doing this.  Plenty to choose from:

Basically, I screen grab whatever I want to scribble upon.  Then, I
capture or save the result to a file.  How this is done depends on
which whiteboard software you're using.  Some offer a "canvas" that is
larger than the screen allowing you to scribble between the screen
grab image and "canvas" margin.  A nice feature is that all whiteboard
software will accept scribbling from multiple users.  Unfortunately,
whiteboard software doesn't work with video which will probably
require video editing software.

These might help you find suitable Windoze software:

Hint:  If you plan to use whiteboard software extensively, think about
trying a stylus instead of a mouse.
