The present invention addresses the need of the industry for a simple and comfortable latch mechanism that automatically latches a window when the window is returned to a closed position. A latch mechanism for a window includes a housing defining an opening therein, a latch bolt slidably disposed in the housing and selectively positionable between an extended position and a retracted position wherein such latch bolt is adapted to be actuated by an actuating mechanism from the retracted position to the extended position, and a stopping mechanism adapted to automatically engaged and retain the latch bolt in the retracted position as the latch bolt is positioned from the extended to the retracted position.
