Q:

hi. I am installing guildwars 2 an there is a regular power outage in my area. When click on the exe file the installation starts from 0%, although the number of files remaining to be copied shows the remaining number and not the whole number of files ( i start of with 198k files when installing first and after the power is back the number shows only 92k) . Does that mean i still have to re install from the start?

If yes, its going to be a great disappointment

The download starts from where It left off, the % is of the remaining download not it as a total

Your good,

The way it works is you started with say 200k files you download to 50% meaning 100k files remaining you switch it off,

You now have 0% of those 100k files the next time you start,

the previously downloaded files are not counted as already downloaded

Should be fine to play unless the network issues at present affect you, I can only play at off peak times at present due to them, otherwise your good to go
