No problems with your English, Claudio.

Firstly, your csv file imports correctly here.
Then, I've looked through all the screenshots, and I take it that they are
showing
your progress  through the import process.

The actual warning message is indicating that the column you selected for the
money amounts does not contain the decimal separator you have selected, and
this seems to be born out by other screen-shots.  You appear to have selected
"." as the separator rather than ",", if I am correctly interpreting the
screen-shot
image, which is on the small side.

If I make that same selection with your file, I too get the same warning as you
did, but all the individual windows may be move about as expected.

So, two points.  If you select the correct separator for your data, does your
file
import correctly?

Secondly, the inability to move the other windows when the warning is displayed
does not occur here, but would seem to be a feature of the Windows version,
which
I am not able to investigate, I'm afraid.

I'll add Cristian to the bug report, as it is he that produces the Windows
version, 
in the hope that he may be able to find time to verify what you see, albeit
possibly not on Windows 10
