Windows 10: Win10 download have auto-resume capability if internet fails?

Hi All,

I plan to get a new Win8.1 laptop soon (I would rather get one with Win10 but they're not yet available here in India). My plan is soon after I get the Win 8.1 laptop to download and install Win10. Here in India the 3G cellular internet is slow and unreliable. I'm scared that if I try to download Win10 it will fail and I'll have to start the download from the beginning.

Someone told me that the Win10 download includes the ability to auto-resume so that if a download fails it can re-start from where it left off once the internet comes back. Is that true? I need to get confirmation on this before I get my new Win8.1 laptop.

If Win10 download really does have auto-resume capability then I can do the Win10 download and resume as needed if the download fails. without losing data.

Please confirm that Win10 download has auto-resume capability so downloaded data is not lost. Has anyone directly experienced a Win10 download re-starting from where it left off after losing internet connection?

Thanks,

:)

Auto-Download Resume and Resume Download After Computer Shut-Down?

Hi. Sorry for the long title. I was wondering if there's a way to have Internet Explorer automatically resume a download when it's interrupted? I want to have downloads going over night while I'm asleep but after a while my downloads seem to get interrupted
and so I have to manually resume it, which is fine, but I'd rather not waste power having my PC on when it's not downloading the file. So I was wondering if there's an auto-resume feature?

Also, I was wondering if you can resume a download after the computer has fully shut-down and unplugged. I'm moving houses tomorrow and need to have the download going for a while, so that means moving the computer and unplugging it fully. Can it resume
the download after being unplugged and turned back on?

Thanks in advance!

P.S I only assume I have Explorer 11, I'm almost certain I do anyway.

 

No auto-resume that I'm aware of. I've not seen anyone mentioned it in any of the forums I spend time on.

Is there any place you can take the laptop to do the download more reliably? If so, use the MediaCreationTool to download and create an ISO or bootable flash drive to upgrade from: Windows 10 - Upgrade Installation

 

OK, good idea. I'll try that approach. Thanks.
