The plastic window scrapers.

If you gotta do it in a hurry, I recommend filling your windshield washer fluid reservoir with the de-icer windshield fluid, it's worked great for me in the past. The best way is to just avoid it. Get a big piece of 4 mill (or thicker) plastic, with tabs that you can shut in the doors and cover your windshield. Then you just open the doors and pull the whole thing off with the snow. Of course, if you're a procrastinator like me, this method would never work LOL.

the best way to do this without putting too much strain on your car is turn it on AT LEAST 10 minutes before you actually have to take off. Turning it on and BLASTING cold air at the windshield as soon as you turn your car on is not going to de-ice it much faster. It takes time and patience. A little help might be to add some de-icing windshield wiper fluid to your car.

The best way to clear the windshield is to avoid that situation entirely. the night before, place a piece of plastic, cardboard, or whatever nonporous covering that you have laying around, and let the ice and snow accumulate on the cover. The next morning, simply uncover the windshield.

I see a lot o people put a piece of plastic on their windshield. This way when they leave work or whatever they can just pull the sheet off and cleaning is a lot easier

If a layer of ice has formed on your windshield, all I usually do is give my windshield a couple of smacks with my fists to crack the ice and then scrape it off with an ice scraper.

If you know it's going to snow/freeze the night before, put large pieces of cardboard over the windshield. Tuck it under the wipers. My dad used to do this and it helps a lot!!

I use a spray de-icer that I buy at Walmart. I don't know what the name of it is, but I call it "Fire Water!" Works fairly well, but then the inside of the windshield steams up and that becomes a larger problem. Sigh.

Ya gotta scrape. Don't do like my son did. We gave him some spray de ice stuff cuz his locks kept freezing shut. He came in early one morning and asked me if I could drive him to school because his doors were frozen shut and I asked if he had tried the de ice stuff and he said no and i asked why not and he said, sheepishly, "It's in the car." True story.

If you've got the time, turn on the defrost and let it do its job. Otherwise, scrape the ice off with an ice scraper.

Spray that de-icing stuff in a can that says it will work. It does! Couple seconds later and the window will be ice free
