Description
>> I've attempted to copy resources across the network instead of downloading them twice and I find that right clicking the L4 Icon and selecting "Cancel download" has no effect.
Steps to reproduce
- Load the program and updates successfully on one system (desktop)
- Update laptop to L4B4 as well.
- on the laptop set Download resources to no
- share resource directory on desktop over the network
- map the shared directory as L: on the laptop
- on the Laptop load L4
- In the commandbar type "scan L:\" and hit enter.
- Restart the program.
- attempt to cancel the ensuing download by right clicking the icon and selecting "cancel download"
- notice that the download does not cancel.
Actual Result
Download will not cancel without killing the process in the task manager. I cannot tell if the download is across the network and slow or across the Internet.
Expected Result
I expect "cancel download" to have something around near instant results. Nothing of the sort, the download keeps going.

Comments
At this point my concern is to save bandwidth by copying across the network instead of the Internet.
