Resume a paused download (safari)

Hello,

While downloading zip files containing audio works in mp3 format (legal!), Safari crashed on me. When I tried to relaunch all the files, I noticed that they seem to be finished... completely impossible in truth, but all the zips are there, they are the same size. Now, I'm trying to extract one and despite the content being quite hefty, it's been about an hour that it's been working on the extraction.

Could you help me?
Configuration: Mac OS X Safari 525.22

    Hello,

    From Safari,
    Go to the Window menu and "Downloads"
    In the window that opens, if you haven't cleared the list, all your recent downloads will appear.
    Locate the one or ones you are interested in. If the download was interrupted, you will see a small circular arrow button at the end of the line. Click on it and the download will resume from where it was interrupted. For this to work, the files that were "apparently" downloaded must be the same as before the interruption and in the same location.
    In the case where these files have been completely downloaded, instead of the small circular arrow button, you will see a small magnifying glass that allows you to see where the downloaded file is. But the most useful thing is that if you right-click on the file, you can choose "Copy Address," which you can then paste into the address bar of Safari to restart the download, which may have delivered a corrupted file if it was abruptly interrupted.

    Good luck
