not a problem... I used to do that all the time, in a door tools and click Load family when I'm really trying to load a different category. I always tell my staff "when in doubt, use the insert ribbon...".

This error appears when you try to load a family with the wrong tool. like clicking on the door tool then load family and select a window instead of a door.
to load a window family: "Architecture" tab >> Window >> load family, select the family.
if you are doing so but this error appear, so this family is set to a wrong category but that need you to share the family to check if it's only about wrong category or the family is not modelled as a window.

you could take a standard door and edit the family (copy it first). should only need to edit the panel extrusion and the frame path (frames are usually sweeps).
