There is a separate fuse and relay fir the high beams , you can swap and put your finger on it and feel it click .



The right or left side windows run off a separate fuse and relay


See page 18 and 21 on of the doc below :

The high beams are also known as "main beams" in the UK ("dipped beams" being the lows). Relay #1, RH side engine bay is the one to swap out with #2 RH side to test. My old XJ6 had that problem but it turned out the column switch didn't work anymore. Check that relay first. Likely the inop windows will likely be fixed with similar checks of those items Lady P has graciously identified for you.
