Tried Windows 10 Technical Preview on Lumia 520.
Since, it was pretty slow, reset-ed my phone.
Apps (like Edge, Store Beta etc.) are gone, but the Layout remains of Windows 10, also am not able to access various apps (Settings, Contacts etc.) as it asks to download/update from the store, which I am unable to.

Now, I tried to clean flash my Lumia, but the Windows Phone recovery tool says that you are on the latest software version available for your phone. Still, I clicked on 'Reinstall software' and after 1.5GB of downloading, it showed some network error, and after 'retrying' it is just not accepting the already downloaded 1.5GB .ffu file but started downloading the '.ffu .temp' and 'metadata' file all over again.

Is there any way to tweak metadata file to make the recovery tool to direct towards the already downloaded file?
