How to open windows that are painted closed

paintwindows

About a month ago I painted my windows and windowsills. The paint dried and I was able to open and close the windows at will for about a week or so after they were painted. Then the weather got hot, we closed the windows, turned on the air conditioning for about a month. Now the weather has cooled down and we want to open the windows again but cannot open most of them. If it helps I painted with an exterior latex semi-gloss.

Just go over all of the edges with a utility knife. If that doesn't work then go in deeper with a putty knife... And if that doesn't work buy a window zipper.
