Driver's Window Doesn't Drop When Opening Door

No, it does not. With the door closed and window all the way up, if I lift the interior or exterior handle, it'll make a slight noise as if it was lowering the window but it doesn't lower.

If i continue to open the door, the friction on the roof rail pushes the window down. Since the window is now "down", when I go to close the door, it will automatically return itself to the closed position.

So the car thinks the window is down when I open the door, which is the reason it puts it back up when the door is closed, but the window isn't actually going down on its own.

Sounds like the same issue I was having originally before I changed the regulator, but the regulator that's in there now is brand new so it can't be a stretched out cable.
