Does anyone have experienced this? the download speed got 4.7MB/s but when it tried to install (in the middle of downloading it) disk usage only around 200-300 KB/s going down to 0 then turn into "Disk Write Error" . It got this way 2-3 times since I installed new windows on my SSD (old was on hdd). Dota still in SSD (newly downloaded bcs the first time I moved my windows to SSD it also like this)
I have tried
Restarting Steam
restarting the PC
freeing up space on the SSD (Not that much but 100gb was free)
verifying game integrity
Launching Steam as an Admin
adding and/ or removing ReadOnly privileges
Clearing the download Cache
uninstalling the specific game (delete the entire of it)
Regedit some Admin previlage
turn off anti virus

SSD should be fine. It also happen in Apex Legend (on HDD)
