Kr1pt1k Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 Once a download error occurs, it usually restarts downloading. But as you were able to resume it I think it will install fine. sent from Xperia sl using tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the download did resume and got completed. But when it tried to install the PKG file, it said the file was corrupted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dranjithk Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 so i was downloading sleeping dogs and suddenly it said download error .. i resumed the dl it continued but now my worry is will it install? My suggestion would be this.. If the download is still 10 or 15% completed, I suggest you to cancel the download and restart it again. It's better to waste 500MB than risk wasting 7 GB like me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It happened to me a couple of days back. The download was interrupted because of a power cut. But the download did resume and got completed. But when it tried to install the PKG file, it said the file was corrupted. Ok, till now my 2 downloads showed error after 70-80%, but never resumed and started from scratch. So I thought if you are able to resume it, it may install properly. I think it would be a matter of chance or luck, some resumed downloads might install properly and some might not. At 67% its worth taking risk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
