Download client

Recommended Posts

Not sure if this is the place to post, but here we go. I chose the MEGA download client, which apparently allows 5GB of free download, just enough to download the entire game. Now... my download stopped at 92% and required me to either buy the PRO client or wait for 3 hours to resume my download. Obviously, I had not downloaded the full 5GB but apparently it thought that was the case. Very annoyed, I noticed that you would be getting 50gb of free downloads if you created an account, and so I clicked to create an account, after which my entire download progress was scrapped. Not only was that a complete waste of time, but also a waste of almost 5GB of internet data, of which I only have 100GB for the entire month. I'm not blaming anyone here, but it seems real silly that this is an actual possibility. My download was 92% done, and then it just vanished because I clicked to create an account? Is there anything I can do?

In other words, I don't understand how the download disappeared entirely, or how it is even possible for a download to disappear like this. I didn't cancel it and was not given a warning that my clicking to create an account would make 2 hours of progress rendered void. Is the MEGA client simply фекал or is my unfinished download possibly located somewhere else?

You should have used a torrent download. I could suggest some things to try to maybe get something out of the downloaded data, but I think it's too much hassle and you should just download it again.

 

My suggestion (keep in mind it's just theoretical )

- find out where the temp file is stored from the mega download (if it was not erased).

- open it with 7zip or whatever achiver ( should be able to open incomplete files, as long as the start is present). extract whatever is possible.

- make list of whatever is missing (hopefully nothing too great or else there is no point in this)

- hope someone can somehow share just that part.

 

If you are lucky maybe just the movies are missing and you can live without them, but I doubt it.

Thanks for the reply.

Torrent download was unavailable. I'm currently downloading it again, but losing 4,5gb of my monthly internet data was the most infuriating part. And of course the time wasted downloading something that disappeared. Chose to use the Yandex stuff instead, made an account and downloaded it directly from that site. It's currently on my list of browser downloads, and thus won't be vanishing anytime soon.
