I can probably help you with this but you'll need to re-word the question. I'm not sure I understand what you're asking. Is the window itself out of plumb?
I liked that you also listed this question in "Windows" (the PC operating system) Was that deliberate?
Anybody with a sense of humor like that is okay in my book.
