Google Download, stop without clearing memory progress?

How can I stop a download via Google without having to abort it completely and start over? It often happens to me that when it's a big download and I stop the download and then turn off the laptop and open Google again the next day and want to continue the download, it starts all over again.

There's no "pause button" for a download. Either complete download or abort and restart. But there are also certain downloads in which you can select what you want to download beforehand.
