Origin Problems need help

[AsterionLeb]

yesterday my friend gave me battlefield V to copy on my machine because downloading the game (89.9 GB) takes too long on my connection (max download is 700Kb/s) 
i start the download then pause it 
i copy the file that my friend gave me wait for the copy to finish
resume
let the origin launcher resume the download it reads till 99% complete the rerolls back to 20 % and starts downloading all over again
and i tried to locate game file but that results in origin being stuck in a crashing loop 
pls i need all the help i can get 
thank you in advance

Are you sure that it starts downloading again? Origin has that stupid habit to check game files if something changes and it takes long time. Especially in case BF5. Check if Origin downloading files or just checking files.

it is downloading because i left it overnight and it wat at 27% only so you see my problem
and you are right it takes a while but when it gets to 99% is goes to 20% and starts downloading

does the directory of the install matter because my friend has is in his D drive and i am installing it in a C drive

It may be because your friend has no up-to-date version of BF5. Last months it was changed from standard to some more recent version, so it's possible that it check files and starting of updating process.
