New Help with a creaking windshield

My windshield has started creaking endlessly and it's DRIVING ME NUTS. Well I'm 90% sure it's the windshield. The sound seems to come from all the way around it, including the top.

It seems to have started after I had the car jacked up and placed on jack stands. Not sure why this would have had an effect unless I torqued the thing while getting it up on there.

Has anyone ever experienced this? Do I simply have it removed and re-installed? Don't know that I've heard anyone discuss it here before.

TIA

So, if youre driving and you apply pressure on the windshield from the inside the creaking stops?

I tried that, but no, it didn't stop.
