    Probably too late for you now.
    You need a wallpaper scraper or something similar ( not a blade or screwdriver).
    Place the edge of the scraper into the middle of the beading (between bead and frame) ,
    It should push in about a millimetre or so, then tilt the scraper up so that the whole edge is now between the beading and frame.
    If you then push the scraper away from you (towards the frame side) the beading should pop out a little,
    Get your finger nails into this gap and pull the beading out (across the front of the window not towards you)
    The rest of the beading should come out a lot easier ;)
    Don’t forget to use a rubber mallet to get the beading back in.
