Can you find this canceled (partial) download, either in the Windows %temp% folder or in the specified download location?

No Neither, Its still in firefox, Because I never closed firefox, So its still there. But If I press it, It just starts all over. @cor-el

Try these steps to resume an unfinished download when you still have the .part file.
- Move the old .part partial download and the final file without the .part that has size 0 to another location.
- Start a new download and pause it, don't close Firefox.
- Copy the two files (.part and 0 byte final) that you moved above back to the download location to replace the new files that were created.
- Resume the download in Firefox.
Could you go more into depth, Im not much of a computer genuis

Were you able to find the unfinished (.part) file because that is the first to check and without this file you can't proceed?
