There are six different 20A fuses in the dash fuse box. Is the blown fuse 20A fuse #8?

Buy a box of 20A fuses. If the fuse blows without pushing the window switch, then individually unplug the window switch in the driver's door and the passenger's door to test whether this prevents the fuse from blowing. If not, a common location for a shorted wire is where the door wire harness passes between the door and cabin.
