Why does my Steam download keep going to 0 bytes?
Steam downloads might drop to 0 bytes for a few reasons! Your internet connection could be unstable, or Steam's servers are overloaded. Sometimes, it's just a simple glitch that restarting your download or Steam itself can fix. Also, check your Steam settings; there's an option to limit download rates, and it might be set too low by mistake.

Servers don't like you. JK, it's probably just network congestion. Try downloading at off-peak hours!
