I am looking for two plastic Window Stops for an AWP single hung window. This is a three sided piece 4" x 1-1/2" x 1" that sits at the top of the vertical portion of the window frame on both the left and right sides. It is plastic, and its purpose is to keep the window from going all the way to the top; you would only remove it if you were going to remove the window. It stays in place in the window channel because the two short sides, which are not quite parallel, serve as a spring (an "interference fit", technically). The two 4" sides actually are parallel; the one inch side portions bow out a tad and this bowed-out feature keeps the unit in place in the window channel. I tried attaching photos, but they are only available as RTF, plain text or raw message source, which will not upload onto this site. Thanks very much.

Unfortunately, without photos, we can't identify your window stops. The three file extensions you listed don't make sense for a photo file, though, because all three of them are types of text/message files. You need to upload an image. It seems likely to me that the file you're dealing with isn't really a photo.
