Observe that Chrome never resumes the download What is the expected behavior? Chrome should resume the download This would be like wget, which does manage to easily resume the download of same URLs What went wrong? Chrome did not resume the download after read timeout wget --read-timeout=10 -c --tries=0 [URL] is my my workaround Did this work before?

I realised this used to work ok until recently. I wonder if latest Chrome update broke this download resume? It's quite a basic feature, so I expect it is already there, and just got broken. |
