As the title says - once I start downloading a game from my library (I don't use the GoG Downloader, just clicking and going and dling works for me!) can I log out of GoG WHILE THE DOWNLOAD IS STILL GOING? In other words, wait for it to start, but not finish and let it finish up with me logged out of my account.

It's not a big deal one way or the other but I generally like to log out if I'm not going to be "doing" anything (forum posting, stalking sales etc) and I was curious if I could start something up and walk away without being left logged in.

Thanks!

Never tested it, but I believe that, as long as your internet connection is still active, yes you can.

Scratch that, I have just tested it.

I stated download.
I closed my Chrome tab completely.
Download continued...

Thanks much! I'll probably still "experiment" myself - but I know before I didn't even want to try that!
