When I started the process again, it knew how far along it had gotten in loading and, while it still required the first 2 thumb drives, it did not re-prompt for MSC code and zipped through the first 2 drives in about 5-10 seconds each and picked up in the third with progress at ~92%.
Yes, thankfully it is smart enough to not make one start all over again, and it will resume from where it left off.
