It depends on how old the windows are & how much paint there is on them. You can try using a putty knife or similar object to reopen the cracks that have been painted. If the window is pretyy sturdy, you might be able to do that & then take a rubber mallet (GENTLY!) to the frame around the window to help knock it loose.

Or, you can do what we do with my grandmother's 200 year-old windows... call in the extremely muscular grandsons when the sorta-muscular granddaughter can't get the job done...

Each smallest act of kindness reverbrates across great distances and spans of time, affecting lives unknown to the one whose generous spirit was the source of this good echo, because kindness is passed on and grows each time it's passed, until a simple courtesy becomes an act of selfless courage years later and far away. Likewise, each small meanness, each expression of hatred, each act of evil.
