Hello, yesterday I noticed this hole near my fog light. I guess it's for adjusting the light, but nothing happens if I turn the screw. I took apart the fog light and I didn't manage to find out it's use. It may sound stupid because of my ignorance, but I am new to cars ...

The screw is not an OE item, I think you may have had anon original bumper fitted on the car and the screw is used to help hold the bumper on to the car. Certainly no such screw on my Facelift bumper. 2010 Sline.
