Window won't go down

I am getting ready to paint my Suburban and removed the wing vents. However, when I closed the door, the window switch got caught between the seats which caused the window to extend all the way up past where it would normally go. Now, I can't figure out how to get the window to go back down. It'll go down about 1/4" and just bind up. How do I get it to go back down?

Unbolt the regulator and track from the door and slide it out of the track it works great I got a set of vent Windows out of a 90 sububan in the junkyard awhile back the Windows were up and no battery I did what I told you and had them out in 10 mins both sides

So once I slide unbolt the regulator, I'll be able to slide the window off the track? Then how do I get the window to go back down? What's keeping the regulator from going down right now? I just want the window to go back down.

It's stuck all the way up and can't get it to retract.

It's Probly binding or the roller came out of the track once the glase is out the regulator should go back down

Once I removed the window, I was able to see that one of the arms got caught on the end of a bolt. Simply backing out the bolt freed the arm and I'm back in business.
