Now, open the Command Prompt by typing cmd in the Run. Open the Run dialog box by pressing Win and R keys together.

This makes it impossible to download the game for people with certain brands of routers (and has been recorded to happen worldwide so it’s not just one niche brand) This is all due to a poorly coded launcher which resets the download instead of continuing from where it left off it it experienced a completely standard network tcp reset. it appears a “network TCP reset” is the cause of the download progress resetting to 0%
