Game asks me to redownload it again...

I downloaded the game untill ready to play, had a blast with it. So i let it download all the way, the last time i played was the night before this post is made CEU time zone.

So the on the day of writing this post i booted up the game and its telling it has to download it... all over again. And i hate that.

    I kinda found a way with the bitraider thing in the launcher settings, does that actually work?

    I had downloaded the game but when i started it up today it said it was patching. So i went digging everywhere on google, found a video and now it has started to download again.

    Initially it was 1.5 gb download not its at 500mb. Now the guy in the video said to put true on bit raider disable in the launcher settings in the game folder just under the swtor exe.

    @Krkio21

    Changing bitraider disable to true is switching patch methods and is a new game download.

    Let it finish downloading and you should be good

    So hey i let it download but someone turned off the pc while i was away. Today i restarted the download, but now as of writing this reply its actually redownloading the first file? Should that happen?

    @Krkio21 It depends how far along the download was. As long as it's left mostly uninterrupted it should go through English Video, Main Assets, and Retail Client. After everything's done the Play button will light up and you'll be able to start the game.

    It was done in a couple of hours but my conceren was because it was re-downloading the files again, i noticed them to be first when i started the method the previous day.

    @Krkio21 Well, I'm glad it's all done now anyway. Enjoy the game, and may the Force be with you!
