2 ACCEPTED SOLUTIONS
If both files with the same name are .CR2 files then they are not JPEG files. It sounds like you downloaded the files once and then downloaded them again.
You can configure the 77D to create both RAW and JPEG images on the card (Page 152 of your manual), but I do not think that is what is going on.

Sorry, did not mean to accept as solution... Photoshop will not allow you to upload additional copies of the same file if the have the same file name. In addition, If there is an image in the catalog with the same file name, Photoshop will skip it. In this case, one image will be named IMG_xxxx.CR2, and the copy is named IMG_xxxx -1 (the number 1 is added to the second image, so they have different file names). I agree that if they are both labeled CR2, one of them can't be a JPG. In addition, the image size is almost identical in both copies. I reviewed my camera settings, and I believe they are set properly. Attached is a screenshot. I think I didn't get accurate information from Adobe, but wanted to find out from others if they had experienced the same type of problem.
I originally posted this question as it relates to importing images from my 77D to Photoshop. I have tried a different editing program, Canon's Digital Photo Professional 4, and have the same problem as I do with PSE. I've attached a screenshot of the result... every image has an exact duplicate! The only difference in the duplicate image is that is has -1 appended to the original image number. Could this be a problem with the SD card? I am using a fairly new SanDisc SDXC 64gb card, formatted when I inserted in the camera? Or, does anyone know of a camera option that may be causing this?
Photoshop Elements does not assign a different file number or append the -1. If you have already uploaded an image, PSE will skip over it and not upload it again. I am attaching the Windows file that shows the upload. If you look closely, you will see that the original IMG # and the one with -1 appended loaded in the very same moment, at the very same time. Actually, more that two loaded in the very same minute... four images, including the ones you think I uploaded a second time, loaded at:11:13, eight loaded at 11:14, and so on... I can assure you that I cannot manually load one photo, restart the import process, and immediately upload a duplicate. I posted my question because I was hoping someone else had run into this same problem and knew the solution. I suspect that the RAW setting in my camera is not working properly - according to the documentation and to customer support, if you use that setting, it should only create ONE image. There is an option to create a RAW and a JPG and would upload as such. In this case, both the uploaded images are CR2. I initially thought it was a Photoshop issue, but realized it's not once I used a different editor.
