Download metadata and media stuck

I tried the "download metadata and media" yesterday and since I have over 4 thousand games, mostly from some kind of variety pack from the M.A.M.E. website it takes a while for all that to download media from. After a day it seems to be stuck on a particular game. How do I unstick it? If I hit cancel will I lose all the metadata and media I got from this?

Sorry you are seeing slow downs with the downloads. Typically when I've seen this a firewall or real-time virus scan are the cause. Just so we are clear, should you run into this issue again when you press the "Cancel" button you are both referring to a pop up window will ask if you want to keep everything already downloaded. Simply press yes and you won't lose any progress. Then just run the "Download Metadata and Media" tool against the games again and select the middle option (Do not replace) and it will only download media and metadata that is missing.
