    Task Manager/Processes shows running processes. You must have started Google Drive twice in this session. I see no reason why you cannot delete the one that shows no usage. But I think you will find both are gone when you reboot, but before you start Google Drive assuming you do not have Google Drive set up to start on boot. If you do have Google Drive in your Startup folder then you should show only one instance in Task Manager when you reboot.

    Do you want Google Drive to start on boot? If not, take it out of startup and start it up when you need it. StartUp should also be faster with one less app to start.

    It is possible to have more than one Google Drive account open at one time, but generally one will not be functioning.

    If you want to run more than one functioning instance of Google Drive you probably will have to use a third party program
