Anupam_R_K Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) Hello! I would like to know how to resume a partial http file download (when the partial file is present and the task is newly being added). I tried using .bc extensions,but it starts a new download into a renamed file. What I need is bitcomet to check if the file is already present and try to determine if it is complete. If not continue the remaining. Edited January 28, 2014 by Anupam_R_K (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The UnUsual Suspect Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 You can resume download of an http task only if the server allows this. This has been a problem ever since http was first used and software engineers have found several ways around this problem, one of the more innovative solutions was bittorrent protocol, it breaks the file into many small pieces so you can stop and start the download as often as you like. On a traditional http task once the connection is broken the entire download must be repeated. If you look on the task properties it should say if resume is supported.
