I have a house with double pane windows. One of these windows has
fog/condensation between the panes. None of the other windows have this
problem. How can I get this moisture out? The window casing is wood.
Replace the window, or live with it.
What's happened is that the seal between the panes has been
compromised, allowing regular air, including moisture, into the gap.
There is absolutely no way you can recreate the conditions at the
window factory where the gap was purged and filled with specially-
dried air, or a gas like argon. Even if you could, you still have the
problem of finding and sealing the leak that allowed the moist normal
air to penetrate.
Don't be so negative. The OP merely has to build a squeegee inside the
window. (Practice with a ship in a bottle, then you'll be ready.)
