Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. May 30th
UPDATE: So I'd like to up the percentage to 100% of the time now. I didn't realize it when I put this up.
So the problem is occuring in the following downloads:
menswear kit
Highschool years (14% then stops)
growing together (14% then stops)
I have to cancel the repair download for those packs for the repair to complete, of course it isn't ACTUALLY complete b/c those 3 packs could not be repaired......
Also, I HAVE tried clearing the cache for EA App, but it doesn't seem to help.
UPDATE 6.6.2023: NOW the download error is occurring on Spa day too - I'm not sure if its any particular pack that is more likely to have the issue.
UPDATE 6.7.2023: - why do I have so many folders in the app???? see screenshot
