When the scripts download the file i want and finish the process , mozilla open me the download dialog saying that download is finished on my right upper corner of the window . I need to close that window but i couldnt achieve it to close the window and finish the script.

There are lots of ways of changing the default download behavior on Firefox. You can use the options below to prevent that download window from showing up at all:
from selenium import webdriver
options = webdriver.FirefoxOptions()
options.set_preference("browser.download.manager.showAlertOnComplete", False)
options.set_preference("browser.download.panel.shown", False)
options.set_preference("browser.download.animateNotifications", False)
options.set_preference("browser.helperApps.alwaysAsk.force", False)
options.set_preference("browser.download.manager.showWhenStarting", False)
options.set_preference(
"browser.helperApps.neverAsk.saveToDisk",
(
"application/pdf, application/zip, application/octet-stream, "
"text/csv, text/xml, application/xml, text/plain, "
"text/octet-stream, application/x-gzip, application/x-tar "
"application/"
"vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet"
),
)
driver = webdriver.Firefox(options=options)
