Go to Solution. April - last edited April Right click on the Origin Shortcut on your desktop or where ever you have the software installed. Find the game you are trying to re install then rename that game for example from Battlefield 4 to Battlefield 41 3. Go to the origin client and click download it should now proceed to the normal steps then start downloading 4.
As soon as the download starts pause the download 5. Go back to the Origin Games folder and delete the Battlefield 4 folder and change Battlefield 41 back to Battlefield 4 6. Resume the download and after origin verifies the game files it will just say resuming for a long time you will find the game will instantly skip to the installing stage. View in thread. With this ID we will be able to take a closer look at what exactly has been going on.
Thank you very much for taking a look in advance. June On several occasions I have opened Origin to find Titanfall is stuck on "resuming download", I am unable to cancel this. I have tried reinstalling origin and it did nothing, and because of this I cannot update any other games. My problem with a game stuck in 'Preparing Download' is that it is not creating the game folder in Program Files x86 so there is nothing to rename, it has been an hour and a half and it is stuck not creating a folder and not knowing what to call it other than Medal of Honor: Pacific Assault.
I did try to create a folder with that name to no avail. I had the same issue. On Windows 7 for Medal of Honor What worked for me is right-clicking and cancelling download. Then exit Origin. I then right-clicked on Origin and selected the run as administrator option. It starting downloading within a minute. March - last edited March I have exactly the same as yours and nowhere does anyone mention how to solve it when there are no folders being created When I first tried to download Pacific Assault in Origin it seemed stuck so I 'X-ed' out and closed it out of the task bar too, then created that folder as mentioned, then ran it again in Origin and bingo it took.
Never had a game do that seem hung on installing or preparing to install the second go round after the said folder was created when I clicked on Download it then opened another window and worked normally like all the other downloads I've done on Origin. My issue now is when the game starts every time btw it'll ask what resolution you want to play in along with other tabs for sound and whatnot in my case there is no x so when I choose a 'close' resolution then play a while then quit to desktop it re-arranges all my desktop icons because they were in p and the game was in some other resolution Help us improve Answers HQ!
In the meantime, PS4 owners are stuck with slow load times and slower updates. Many PS4 owners, while sitting through potentially hour-long copying sessions, likely wonder why the PS4 needs to copy updates in the first place. Often, a rather small patch for a game will download in almost no time at all, but then the PS4 enters the "Copying update file The PS4's copying update data process seems to have been added sometime in possibly in system update 4.
Essentially, what Sony calls "copying" appears to be an extra safe way of installing smaller-than-normal update files. As explained by Quora user Andrew Fox , the copying process seems to be a side effect of Sony sending out bandwidth-saving, small update files. If a game has a 20GB file, but only 5MB of data within it needs to be changed, Fox said, a developer can just send out that 5MB of data over the internet and let the PS4 to do the rest.
See the quick video demo below. Also, if you have multiple downloads going at once, then pause some of the non essential ones so the ones you really want will download faster. It is very important to configure the right settings on your PS4 though so it can still download when in rest mode. Your PS4 will now still continue to download files even when in rest mode, and in some cases this may make the download complete a little faster. The light on your console will flash orange when it is in rest mode.
Pressing the power button or the PlayStation button on your pad will turn the console back on so you can check download progress. Another way to potentially improve download speeds on your PS4 is to change your DNS server settings. This can sometimes improve the bandwidth available to your console, but is very hit and miss and will sometimes make no difference or even worsen the speeds you get.
The performance of DNS servers depends on so many different factors it is impossible to predict what will happen in each case if you change them. However, it is worth trying if you want to see if you can get files to download a little faster. The process is covered in the above video. The tester does indeed find an improvement in bandwidth using different DNS servers; this may or may not be the case for other people who try this. It requires reconfiguring the internet connection mostly as Default or Automatic, but changing to Custom just for the DNS servers and entering your own ones manually.
Google DNS 8. Bottom Line — Your download speeds may or may not improve by changing your servers. It depends on a lot of different factors; see the video above for a detailed test of all three servers. The other two delivered worse bandwidth. Every situation will be different. If you are looking for an even more advanced way of finding the perfect exact pair of DNS servers for your location, then you may want to use the free DNS Benchmark tool , which will run a full test from your computer of all available DNS servers in your area and rank them according to the fastest and most reliable ones.
You can then select the two top ranked ones and manually put them into your PS4 as we showed above. To use this tool you need to visit the website, download the free application and then run the DNS test. Gamers based in the US can use the quick test; someone based in another part of the world may want to run the fuller test that takes around half an hour and tests DNS servers from all over the world to find the two best ones for your location. In some cases using Custom DNS servers can give a noticeable enough improvement in bandwidth to make it worth changing them.
If you really like the results you get from using a certain custom pair of DNS servers, then you can even put them into your router so that all the devices in your house can use them. See here for an article how to do this for some popular routers.
