    Win10 big update auto resume if internet drops?


    Hi, I'm running Win10 Home on an i5 5th gen laptop. I'm trying to download the big new Win10 update but I live in India and my internet is unreliable. Does the Win10 download auto-resume? I can't tell. Does the download pick up from where it left off if the internet fails? So far I can't tell one way or the other. Thanks,

    Seeing by the recent condition of Windows update, nearly impossible.
    On an extremely slow connection , my update got to a maximum of 5 percent, throws an error and starts downloading again.
    This might be due to huge load on Windows update servers.

    Hello Sumitdhiman, Luck was with me. My Reliance 3G cellular internet here in Kerala cut out a few times but the download resumed from where it left off. I kept my pc on the whole time. The whole thing downloaded in about 12 hours! Wow. That's a big update. With luck it also installed successfully. Yay! I was quite surprised the download and install went smoothly.
