drivers window stopped working 850 1993

After driving for most of the day today (for work), I parked the car and lowered all 4 windows a bit so the car wouldn't get too hot inside.

Came back to the car about an hour later, and put key in the ignition to start car.

Car started fine, but the windows wouldn't go up. Didn't matter if the button was on or off, none of the windows worked.

Also, the cooling fan wasn't working either. It's done that a few times and usually just takes the car turning off, taking key out, putting key back in and re-starting.

I did that and the fan came back on. However, the windows still acted all wonky.

Eventually, the passenger window window worked, and then both back windows worked. And finally the drivers window went up.

I tested the windows off and on on my way home and the back windows and passenger windows work fine, but my drivers window doesn't.

Any ideas? I don't know if it's the switch or not. I'm hoping it's just dirty somehow.
