Help with window that doesn't open anymore

HI,
yesterday this window opened and now it doesn't open anymore, without any intervention at all.
Do you know how I can unlock it, please?

Thanks.

the clip behind the push button seems to be working correctly: it stretches when the button is released and pulls back when the button is pushed.

Hi,

is there a wee button on handle to push then turn?

Hi,

do you have a key to try, maybe the innards have moved.

How hard is it to turn the handle? Same as before or has it gone really loose indicating it has separated from the locking mechanism inside?

The key works correctly.
The handle seems a bit loose. Now it can turn all the way 360 degrees

Nothing of that looks in bad shape

Hi,

have you tried a screwdriver in centre square to see it it turns?

With the handle now off when you turn it does spindle move normal. Hold the spindle and turn handle and see if plastic holding it is still gripping.

Fixed.
The pivot had distanced too much from the innermost part of the push button. Now it's working.
