This sort of shit is why I never pause any download unless it's a torrent xD
Seriously sucks though either way; my condolences for your lost time. -
Or that bug on Safari where it downloaded xcode 100% without errors but file is damaged 😔

@gitpush That reminds me of when I tried to download a Linux ISO that apparently was corrupted. Twice.

bondman2428ywhy is 17gigs taking you 2 days? change ISP? is the speed slow where you live? shitty download manager ?

Once I downloaded 9 gigabytes and the app crashed when attaching the parts together after download was finished and successfully deleted the parts!

Best advice, change countries, go somewhere developed as soon as you make yourself able to.
Had same crazy stuff back home -
For huge downloads, I download them on my Azure VM first. Then I create a torrent out of it and then download on my pc using a torrent client.
PS: My Azure VM is free. -
bondman2428y@coffeedrinker i see, i have lived in parts of the world where the connection was shitty but they always had good speed at work. 17 gigs doesnt take more than and hr 2 tops right now and I guess it is indeed a blessing where i live
