Windows 10: Can't download large files

Every time I download a file of around 10GB or more, it gets up to ~80% and then stops. I have tried this on different browsers and it happens in all of them. I even tried downloader apps and it still can't download. I used Command Prompt to enable Administrator Account and it works fine on that, but I would like to be able to download large files on my main user. Edit: It worked on the Administrator Account the first time but now when I try and download another file it stops as well.
