Possibly a short circuit in the door connector. At either side.

Is the window moving a little before blowing the fuse? Or is the window moving very slowly before popping the fuse?

Its probably shorting out so check the wiring from the car to the doors (block connectors in the footwell behind the carpet is where it joins)as the wiring tends to move the most in that area

I have to move the wires and relays to locate the fuse them put them back again then push the panel back in place.
I suppose something could be happening there.
