antivirus or firewall could be blocking the download. try temporarily disabling them. do update java. minecraft doesn't use flash, though just about everything else does so it wouldn't hurt to get it.
This is why no one wants to help you. In a moment I'm going to enjoy some of your delicious tears, but to show I am a good sport, posting a screen shot of the config window would be helpful.
Would be nice if someone would actually post a solution or theory on why the download stops, Trying to get a screenshot, but it keeps blacking out for me, been trying to update/redownload the game for a good two hours now, turning off both firewall and Anti-virus, nothing have helped so far.
It seems like it is unable to download anything from the minecraft server, stopping at 1-3% and then gets a error.
Just in case let me tell you this
I dont have adobe flash player
Java verson is 10 needs to be updated
What do I do?!
if it's windows firewall.
control center > windows firewall > turn windows firewall on or off
No wait... Windows firewall is on also -_-I dont know how to disable it...
that should pop a new screen with a few radio buttons you can change.
