All those extra holes were already there by the way. Wall holes are big in France.

Thank you for the specific measurements in your advice. I’m mid project and getting mad I have to put fucking anchors in the bullshit drywall when I miss the stupid windows stud like a thumbsy chump.
Buy a stud finder. Slide it back and forth a lot. Mark the edges multiple times until it’s pretty clearly a multiple of 1.5 inches.
Non supporting walls will only have 1.5 inches or sometimes 3 inches of stud to mount to.
Supporting walls will have a lot more. Solid wood above the window, jack studs, and king studs. It varied depending on load requirements, but it’s usually several studs solid around supporting wall openings.
Buy a house made of stone like the third piglet. Then curtain rods can be anchored anywhere for the remainder of time itself.
So many reasons we don’t build houses that way anymore.
