Hello! I'm trying to download a .zim file of Wikipedia that has 78GB. This is the second time I try downloading this file, as the first time it got stuck at ~37 GB after accidentally shutting down my PC. This time however, it just got stuck at 59.2GB (the download speed was stuck at 2.2 MB/s). After some time being stuck it just failed. After pressing retry it "resumed" but it was still stuck. I tried this thig too (https://techsive.com/how-to-resume-failed-downloads-in-mozilla-firefox/) to no avail. Please help. Thanks!

many problems are caused by issues with your Internet service provider. Usually, these issues result in high latency or lag, which in turn cause your download to fail. ... One solution is to clear the temporary Internet files under the History section
