I've downloaded about 1.4 GB of this game and i turned off my comp and the next day the download resets to zero then i checked properties it says taking 7500 MB of space on C:
so my question is is the download still going from the 1.4 GB or it just simply restarts to 0% and leaving the downloaded files
if so how do i reuse the downloaded files in my downloading folder.
Thanks for your help
I see you are Suffering from this "Dota 2 Download Reseting". I was Experience this before after I Install "Steam Skin". And One Day, I installed Dota 2, I notice that the download was reseting; It reset 5 Times and I'm really annoyed, Then I realize, Last Year I installed Dota 2 Smoothly by NOT USING SKIN.
Hope this one helps, Follow these Steps, Hope Dota 2 Download Smoothly
1.) Check if you are using other Steam Skin except Default, ( Use only Default )
2.) Uninstall Steam, and Install it again
3.) Install Dota 2
4.) Check if there is the Download Reset Symptoms
5.) Keep Downloading Dota 2, If you notice that the Download is not reseting, Well That's it ! :D
I followed these Steps made by Me, And I notice Dota 2 is downloading smoothly, and NOT RESETING ALL THE TIME. Try it for yourself, Hope this one Helps.
I am Glad to Help, Good Day !! :)
( Add me if you want, If I had Time let's Play )
The Reason is; Instead downloading the 50% left files. It Start over to 0%, in short; IT DOWNLOAD THE WHOLE GAME AGAIN INSTEAD DOWNLOADING THE REST FILES.
So now you understand why this Happens. Follow my Steps above and hope it Download smoothly and Keep not from reseting.
Steam does not respond very quick, so I made solution by myself. Try my Steps first, if that does not works, contact Steam.
Besides, its his problem not mine lol..
I honestly like Anet's support, they actually reply fast back to you, got 3 replies on helping me with the account on the same day I sent the request.Valve needs to work on the team support more imo.
If you start a download, and let it finish. Then you go to start the game and they released a patch either during your download or just then, you only need to download the small file to slightly atler your existing files.
If, however, you start a downoad and it gets to whatever percent, lets say 50%. If at that point you pause the download and shutdown steam, IF they have released a patch/update since you paused your download, it will have you start the download again from 0 because some of the files you have allready downloaded may have changed.
There is some sort of glitch where steam "forgets" what files it allready has if a ptach comes while a download is paused. I had to download the same 500Mb patch 4 times because i would pause it and move my laptop to a new location and an update would've happened in that time.
Simple solution: Just turn download on, go to sleep, just let it do its thing.
It has been this way for a very long time, i doubt if the system will change. Team fortress 2 does this resetting download glitch as well if you pause it and they release a patch.
This guy is right, better leave the pc downlading the game in the night because you are going to use the same resources in the day.
I will notify you Guys when Steam reply to me, Or contact Steam by yourself
And i would also change your steam settings to have downloads (updates) just download the second they come out instead of asking for permission each time. I just come home each day and see what random updates i downloaded while i was away. (todays was marvel universe and some skyrims mods)
So is it going to recover the lost files or perhaphs in my case its 3.2gig out of 6.6gig, cause it says that it'll download 0/6.6gig this is very irritating
