In a situation where you are within a structure that is on fire and you cannot flee to a safer location, you would want to keep windows in the closed position. Opening windows will bring in an air flow in which the fire will flow towards. If there is not oxygen for a fire, it will help to decrease the fire because it is taking away a source of fuel.

Keeping them closed ensures they function effectively in an emergency.
