Remove any exterior siding that covers the edges of the window. Depending on the construction of your home, this step might not be required.

Ask a friend to hold the window in place.

Remove the interior and exterior screws that hold the window in place using a drill.

Pull the window from the opening. If necessary, use a scraper to release any caulking or putty holding the window in place.

Scrape any old putty and caulk from the edges of the opening.
