that's more of a statement than a question.

the strong rope i think you mean is called sash cord and it is weighted to draw the weight of a sash window.

the cord is hidden behind the frame so it can be barely seen, but is simple to repair if needed.

in some houses in Europe you cannot remove original sash windows as they are historically protected and there are specialist tradesmen you can call to repair them.

hope that helps
