Go into steam options and clear the download cache... Once I did that I didn't need to verify my DBD install after every update.

You'll have to relog into Steam.

Either what thebean said, or you could try and see if your AV is messing with files. It's possible that when downloading a new update, something happens to the files temporarily that the AV picks up on and quarantines the files.

I downloaded Dishonored but Windows Defender was so picky that when I went to launch, it crashed instantly. Verified my cache and got so many files missing. Downloaded 11.1 GB of "patches" for a 12.3 GB game.

and its taking literally an hour even though i have a 6mb/s download speed which is why its frustrating me
