Don't listen to these faggots OP, /diy/ loves to gate keep and gaslight people who ask simple questions, which this is but if you've never seen this "lock" you wouldn't know how it works. It's like asking how to start a fire, everyone will give you shit for not knowing but nobody is born with that knowledge.
It's not actually a screw, it looks that way to be a weird tamper resitant thing. Say somebody wanted to open the window that shouldn't be opening windows they might try to loosen or tighten it with an obvious tool like a screwdriver or socket/nut driver. They put it on the not screw and it'll just spin. It's actually a spring load pin you need to pull out using a pair of pliers. You should be able to spin it by hand, if you can't somethings wrong with the pin, probably spun too much. Get some vice grips(needle nose variety) and yank on ot as hard as you can. Might seem counternintuitive but
that's how these windows are designed and I hate them because the pin is almost always stuck and you're afraid to put too much force on the window but it can handle the force.

Hello,

It would be a sort of this but with another kind of tip. Instead of this one, it would be a 'point of entrance' do allow the window pin to enter.
