Downloading in Epic Games Launcher starts from 0% after pause and reboot, why?

I'm downloading GTA V. After 20gb / 100gb I paused my download for restarting my pc. Then download restarts from 0%.

Why this could happen? Can I restart my PC during downloads without losing progress?


Don't pause or exit Epic Games launcher when you are still downloading. If the Wi-Fi is off, restart your PC. If you want to shutdown your PC, shut it down without pausing the game or exiting Epic Games. This worked for me.
