Window is not functioning properly

Most of the time the reason the window does not stay up is because one or more of the balance shoes have come off the pivot bar in the window.
THIS IS NOT A DAMAGED WINDOW.

TOOLS REQUIRED: Flat head screw driver.

STEP 1:
Take the flat head screw driver and insert it into the metal part that has a “U” shape grove in it. The “U” is the locked position of the shoe

STEP 2:
Keeping a strong and steady hand, turn the screw driver clock wise until the “U” is now “C” shape (Open position). Shown in the figure 2 to the right.

IMPORTANT: The shoe is spring loaded to go upwards, please make sure you put downward pressure so that the shoes does spring upward.

Figure 1

STEP 3:
Bring the shoe up 3”-4” and then turn the screw driver counter clockwise to bring the grove back to the “U” or locked position. Now you can remove the flat head screw driver as shown in figure 3.
