well i doesn't make sense because of putting "Opening the window" as a second clause.
V-ing is as a noun so it can't stand alone without a verb
if you say "i took out some fruits and opened the window" or "i took out some fruits after opening a window", it makes sense

@yasu0911 I meant, I opened the door first then i took out some fruits like my first question. so can't i use the participle clause here at the second part of the sentence?

@RXYY
yes i don't think you can

if you say "Opening the door of the refrigerator, I took out some fruits" then the part "opening the door" plays the part as an adverb. The listener will understand that only if you open the door you can then take out some fruits.

The part "opening the door" is actually "i opened the door". This sentence has been shortcut.

using the participle clause at the second part of the sentence doesnt really make sense.
It's not exactly incorrect but the listener won't understand what you want to convey, like whether you open the door first or take out some fruits first. Its kind of lack of something.

Hope its helpful

by the way, if you put "opening the door" secondly, it already means that you take out fruits first then open the door, unless there is the word "before" added in the middle of them

I mean: I had taken out some fruits before opening the door.... like that

I'm not sure if my explanation 100% correct but I've never heard anyone say such thing, and I think you won't too

So if you do, tell me:(

@yasue0911 "he be like" doesn't it sound grammatically wrong? I think it should be "he is like" or is it the short form of "he will be like" and we just say it "he be like" ?🤔
