I had something similar when my battery was changed, although it also affected the central locking and alarm.

Suggestion
Hi, I had the same issue when I replace end my battery, even though I did attempt to put a secondary supply on!

Hold the window down button for 10 sec and then up for 10, that reset window drop on door open for me.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

The battery on my 996 has recently been replaced. Everything is functioning except the windows which neither drop when you try to close/open the doors or operate when inside the car. It has been suggested that the car needs to stand for a while until it goes into electrical shut down and that might then rectify the problem. I don’t think it’s a microswitch problem as it affects both doors. Does anyone have experience of this and how it can be resolved?[

Hi, I had the same issue when I replace end my battery, even though I did attempt to put a secondary supply on! To sort the problem I re programmed the windows and sun roof in my case. Hold the window down button for 10 sec and then up for 10, that reset window drop on door open for me.
Good luck
Welcome Paul!!
The limit positions are lost when the battery is disconnected. What Mark suggests will work, but you only need to close the window, and then press the 'close' button again. There are a few other things you may find useful in this document:

Update
I have tried the suggestion of holding down the window rocker switches, with the ignition on/engine running but there is no power to the windows. Is this indicative of a blown fuse?
