How to resume a Visual Studio 2017 intentionally stopped

Admin 1

I started downloading Visual Studio for offline installation using layout switch. When the installation was 19.1Go, I closed the console and the download got stopped. Today I restarted it in the same folder (where previous files were) thinking it would continue. However, from what I see, it simply overwrites the previous files (files are still downloaded from internet). So, I am wondering if someone has a way to make it continue.

Thank you.

Yes , now we can resume the offline installation. Latest installer Verifies the files if directory is unchanged and Resumes from there But they should provide torrent links of at least VS community edition, it is more reliable especially if files are multiple and are large in size.
