Like if you initially had 10GB, after their 'fix', it would probably restart from 7 or 8GB (which also didn't really happen for me so maybe they didn't mention all the steps to implement the fix?). Problem is, in the methods people talk about, you still lose a bit of the progress from how they explained it. So I thought that maybe people have tried this method, but it doesn't work, and they had to do convoluted steps to trick steam to restart the download. But nobody, throughout the steam forum mentioned this method. Funny thing is, there was a fix that I had thought of from the start something very simple and obvious and should technically work. I searched all through out the web and there were a few solutions listed, but none of them seemed to work for me. 10GB may not seem like much, but 5 days was a whole lot of time. It had finally sunk in that steam screwed up and I lost all the download progress.

I thought it might me mistake so I restart steam, but it was still missing. Woke up today morning to find the download progress bar suddenly missing from the bottom of the screen. provided there weren't any 'Day 1' updates or anything.Īh, the best laid plans of mice and men. Thought to my self, if I keep this up, I can start playing Dishonored 2 in about 12 to 13 days. So if I swaped out the cards everyday, I can get 2GB data per day. I had 2 SIM cards from the provider and a wireless dongle. But now I needed to figure out a way to download it right? Luckily, where I'm from, a new telecom service provider had come into the picture offering 1GB of 4G data per day.

It felt like the universe was laughing at my expense. And Dishonored 2 just went on sale 50% off and I had no net to download it. So I currently live in my parents house, a little outskirts from the city and when I heard the news from all my ISP providers that nobody can offer me a broadband connection, I felt my life was over. A little backstory, you can skip to the instructions if you want :
