Question: Q: Can I force iCloud Drive to download all of my files? I recently purchased a new MacBook Pro running High Sierra.

I understand that you accidentally started downloading files from iCloud Drive, and now you're unable to stop that download. I'm happy to provide some help with this issue.
I would recommend turning off iCloud Drive, and then re-enabling it. Doing this will stop all processes related to iCloud Drive and temporarily remove access to those files until you sign in again:
macOS Sierra: Use your social media and other Internet accounts on your Mac
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Internet Accounts.
Select an account on the left, then do one of the following:
Turn features on or off: Select each feature you want to use, and deselect any feature you don’t want to use.
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Cheers!
