Default Stuck windows

I had my house painted a couple of months. Now I noticing that a few
windows on the upper level of my house are stuck. How do I unstick the
windows?

Razor blade or scraper. I saw a trick on television one time. The
painter should put vaseline on the track to keep the paint from adhering
the frame to the moving window.

Of course the right thing to do is take out the moving window and paint
with a fast curing paint. Normally paint drys to the touch but doesn't
cure for up to 30 days.

Good luck
