Answer by  asad (116)

In old browsers if unintentionally you have closed the browser the program your downloading will also close with the browser. Now a days the new web browser i. e Firefox, IE, Google Chrome have the ability to keep the active downloads when you close the browser it asks you to continue or exit the downloading or you can resume it later.

Unless you have a specific addon for the browser AND the source of your download supports "resume"... odds are your download was cancelled outright, and you'll have to start again.

The temporary file is erased and the download cannot be resumed, you have to start the download all over. You should try a download manager to avoid this problem. Just do a google search!
