Had some problems with my files duplicating on upload. This video suggested to try and do the force stop method. This fortunately fixed my problem, so thank you for that. I spent hours trying to figure out what was causing the problem. I tried to clear cache and data, but that didn't work. I tried deleting and reinstalling the app that I was uploading files from, and that didn't work. I should have tried to delete Google Drive and reinstalled it, which could have also worked. Unfortunately I lost my important files and now I have to redo my project files. But the good news is I don't have to worry about the this annoying file duplication bug anymore.
