opening bed room slide out windows

Hello to Everyone

just returning from three weeks on the road good trip as nothing broke!
my question is we have a 2013 3100rl and it would be nice to open the windows beside the bed for a breeze but when I try to open using the latches it wont open thought I would ask before I break something any help would be great!

Our bedroom slide windows are hard to open as well. I have to push those latches in as hard as possible, and push up hard while wiggling the frame. Silicon spray helps. Only one side for us, other side opens easier.

In our SOB the windows that slide up were almost impossible to open. Our dealer had us loosen the screws holding the frame in very, very slightly, less than a quarter turn. You don't want the window falling out as you travel down the road. After following his advice, the windows opened like a charm with no more problems in the ten years we owned it. His theory was that they were overtightened and caused the frame to bind and preventing raising the window. Hope this helps.

Ours on this Montana open side to side and are pretty easy. Previous Montanas were like yours and difficult some times.
