Sticking Awning Windows

Hello. I have a 2013 Winnebago Era. My awning windows are sticking. Is there something I should use to keep them from sticking? Silicone? Apply to windows and rubber gasket? Despite always trying to be gentle with them, I think I may have cracked one of the twist latches (before going outside to gently pry on the window.

Those windows are so floppy. Do those things have a short life? Ever replaced one?

Thanks,
Roy (newbie)

    What d you mean by awning windows, awnings do not have windows, do you mean the windows on the side of the RV that are under the waning.

    After a time dust an dirt accumulate on the channel that the glass runs on, use a good vacuum cleaner and a small screw driver (flat) to dislodge the dirt, be carful not to ruin he material that is glued in.

    After that if you use anything to lubricate the channel it will only attract more dirt and you will be in the same or worst situation.
