Re: Strange windows water leak
Do you have a roof or overhang above ? Lots of times home owners think windows are the source of water intrusion when in fact its a roof or the wall itself.
Re: Strange windows water leak
Yes, a roof is above, will check tomorrow outside for any water entry possibility. Thanks for pointing this possibility.

Re: Strange windows water leak
The issue is from above. Roof or sidewall is likely the issue.
Need to see a picture from further back to see the structure.
You can see the staining on the J channel and capping. The water is coming through from above.

Re: Strange windows water leak
Thats not the window. The water is coming from above and going behind the fascia board.
Re: Strange windows water leak
Yes the problem was fascia board from other side. Thank you!
