What year and model Vectra? How many doors?
Manual or electric windows?
I would think it needs mechanism changing.
Pretty easy job .. Door card and seal off .. remove old, fit new.

It wants the door card removing first to confirm the diagnosis ... but I'm pretty sure. New ones are quite expensive ... some over 100 quid .. and obviously a driver's front door mechanism will be the most common failure.
Here's one for decent price ...http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vauxhall-Vectra-
