Only solution is to force quit.

Regression Yes ⇒ No

Chances are the window is off-screen, like if you changed monitors or changed resolution since the last time you opened that dialog. In such cases, often Esc or Enter whatever keyboard action would normally close the dialog will still work. Then you can use Help / Revert to Factory Settinga, or the plugin to reset window positions.

It happened multiple times (like more than 10) and with different files. I tried to reduce windows, close all other windows , tried Esc, Ctrl-C, Ctrl-D, Ctrl-W, Alt-F4 and some others, displayed the desktop, reduce the windows size ... I really searched for the workaround
And usually the modal windows do work and it is just a supposition, also because of the error message.
I some cases, when a modal windows is created at the application launch, it seems to fail to display.
