Out of = from

Don't throw trash out the window. VS. Don't throw trash out of the window.

Out and out of are interchangeable there or in any case for the same meaning?

Some teacher says that the two meanings are the same, but I still do not understand it because out of means from and then, Don't throw trash out of the window means Don't throw trash from the window. And the latter does not make sense, does it?

I hope to hear from you again. Thank you so much as usual and have a good day.
