Metal transmits heat and cold better than vinyl does, so a metal window frame would heat up quicker and hotter than a vinyl window frame. That temperature change might also affect the insulating properties of the window.

What is the best way to stop a vinyl window from squeaking when it is being opened and closed?

Depends what is squeaking. Is it the balances (things inside the frame that control the movement of the sashes) or the sash vinyl rubbing against the frame vinyl? Wd40 would work for both. I suggest you rub a bar of soap on the weight bearing sides or bottom depending on what type of window it is ie. slider or sash.

Replace the window with a vinyl framed "double/triple paned" glass window, available from your local hardware store. Add another window on the inside frame of your existing window.

Are vinyl stickers and vinyl window decals the same thing?

It's a matter of semantics but vinyl stickers is a catch all term, whereas vinyl window decals are more specific and a subset of "vinyl stickers". Vinyl window decals are usually static cling and have a clear backing, or frosted background, though not always. It really depends on the item. In answer to your question, vinyl window decals are a type of vinyl stickers, just as apples are a type of fruit. Hope this helps.
