Didn't look like it was resolved by a particular action by the topic starter.

My log does not contain a 'download cancelled' line like in the other topic. I already tried reassigning folder ownership by running FAF as admin and then my normal user again. The disk has 66GB of free space. Obviously restarted FAF and I made sure I was not on an IPv6 connection. My already installed mods and maps seem to work fine without any errors in the client or in game.

At this point in time the issue seems to have `magically` fixed itself. Maybe something changed serverside :D I have not made any changes to my FAF installation nor my internet connection since I originally posted this. The map and mod vault works fine now. I will leave this the post up here in case its relevant to any future problems.
