And there is like a lot of sticky residue stuff am I going to be able to get that off with just some regular windex or am I going to need something else?

I used to tint windows. We would use some water with a bit of dish soap in it. We would spray the window down and give it a minute or so for the old glue to soak up a bit of the stuff. Then we would use scrapers to take the old glue off. If there were defroster lines, we would not use scrapers. We used scrub pads. However, be careful to get one that does not scratch glass. We used the green plastic kind. If the glue was particularly stubborn. We would use ammonia. It stank real bad but it would really remove the glue. Leave the windows open on the car and in half an hour the smell is gone.
This is if the old tint has been taken off. If there is tint left on, it gets a bit harder. The plastic film on the tint kept the soapy water or ammonia from reaching the glue.

This stuff is nasty, it gets cooked on to the window by the sun, and is hard to remove. I have used starting fluid, in a spray can, it cuts it pretty well, but beware, this stuff is very flammable, and ALL petrochemicals will leave an odor. Another that I have used is Lysol disinfectant, it is about 85% alcohol, and with a razor blade, it should do the trick, and it doesn't smell as bad afterwards.
