My result file size is merely 300MB. However, it is so easy to break down when I download the "Patstat subset data". Then I repeat again and again. Finally, the file has downloaded, after 15 times retry :oops: .

Dear user,

Thank you for your suggestion: We were not aware of this problem and will investigate it in more detail. Please be aware that the bulk data edition of PATSTAT might be a better choice in case you are repeatedly downloading such large sets of data (for which the tool was actually not designed). This way you can work with the full data set and extract as much as you wish. Please find more information on the PATSTAT product pages at epo.org/patstat .
