Somehow, I thought this was about what a crappy piece of software Windows
8.1 is, but thankfully it's on a more interesting topic.

Yes, you are right, there is just a simple U channel in the back of the
door.  It has a little mount welded to it, which screws to the door.  The
channel needs to be firmly mounted in the door, and should be free of dents
and small bends in the metal, as this will impede the movement of the
window.  If this is sorted properly, you won't need lubrication in here to
make the door window work right.

Cheers,

Alan
