Why aren't apps completing downloads, they just continue?

[AC Question]

unstoppable downloads

My S5 will not stop downloading an app. It continuously downloads without stopping. I have to shut the download process off to get it to quit.

Re: unstoppable downloads

Welcome to Android Central! Which app is it? First, go to Google Play Store, tap Menu>Settings, and turn off Auto-Update. Then go to the App Manager, select Download Manager, and Clear Cache/Clear Data, then Force Stop. Now see if it happens again.
