  1. Download Restarts After Pausing In Microsoft Store - I think I've found a simple solution!


    I have recently been downloading Ark : Survival Evolved from the microsoft store so that I can play with my friend who's on xbox. It's a pretty big game and my internet doesn't have the best download speeds which meant that I needed to pause the download so that I could turn my pc off and continue it the next day. After doing so, my download completely restarted from the begining which definetely wasn't right.I began searching for answers but the only helpful ones I could find were just suggestions to turn off the sleep mode settings and to leave the pc running overnight. Although, this would

  2. Microsoft Store Restarting Downloads After Pausing & Restarts

    I have recently started downloading Forza 4 via the Microsoft store and realized that every time i pause or restart my pc that the download restarts?

    Is Windows/Microsoft Store intentionally throwing away the downloaded button? and if that's the case, is there a setting to remember the data that was downloaded?

    I mean, why even include a pause option if it will restart your download in any case?

    this seem dumb and for someone with limited data/ slow download speeds this seems silly that Microsoft could not think of a better solution.

    if any can help me with this issue, i would greatly appreciate it!

    thanks

    Microsoft Store Restarting Downloads After Pausing & Restarts

    Hello JPVan,

    I'm Jin, a fellow Windows 10 user and an independent advisor.

    I understand that downloading Forza 4 seems to reset the progress after the download is being paused.

    When downloading an app from Microsoft Store, you should see like Paused XX.XX MB of YY.YY MB. Have you noticed on your download the if the total size (YY.YY MB) of the app gets adjusted after hit the resume download button?

    Kind regards.

  4. Download Restarts After Pausing In Microsoft Store - I think I've found a simple solution!

    Microsoft Store downloads are extremely slow and keep pausing.

    Hi,

    I've recently purchased Forza Motorsport 7 on the Microsoft Store.

    I just checked my internet download speed and it is a stable 50mbps.

    While downloading the game on Microsoft Store, I can not get faster than 15mbps.

    This means the game will take over three times longer to download than what I expected.

    That isn't my main problem though. For some reason the download keeps pausing constantly every minute. Each pause lasts at least 10 minutes before the download continues again. During each pause, the download sometimes says "Finding Product Files".

    I have had the download running for 1 hour and have only managed to download 170 MB out of 99 GB. This is unacceptable. Is there anyone who can help me out?

    By the way, I have already tried all steps from this answer with no improvement: Redirecting
