This is weird. Usually when it regresses I pause the download, completely exit Origin and open it again, then resume the download. This recovers some of the progress. But the weirdest thing is, before I unpause it, it shows the progress as if it had never regressed in the first place!
It's like it saves the progress but at the same time it doesn't.
When getting the 16EB/24GB issue restarting the client seems to at least partly work around the the problem.
It has allowed me to resume from ~1.86GB downloaded only time will tell if it allows me to complete the download (albeit with a number of restarts to workaround this stupid issue with the client).
I wish EA would give up with Origin and go back to using Steam, I have far less issues with Steam.
