The only quick way that I know of: Restore from your local or online backup.

I would contact the RS and suggest this if I'd be you.

eh. a assume i am not the only one who has been stricken with this problem... so RS should consider this.
i really do not know why would be so hard to implement an option to check packs you would like to install. so... there would also be a check all option... and... simple install all packs.

Ugh, that's rough! I don’t think there’s an official one-click way, but RS should really add a batch download option for Reason+ packs. 800+ is no joke. Hope they streamline it soon!

I only keep a handful of packs installed at a time. I search and browse in Companion and just install the ones I might use at that time.

My R+ subscription expired in February. So, naturally, before it expired, I downloaded all the packs... one click at a time. It was hell. Definitely more than 800 clicks involved. There should absolutely be a 1 click option. Until then.. enjoy a few days of clicking.
Players are to MIDI what synthesizers are to waveforms.

Seems excessive to me. I like to browse and just download the ones that I think I'll like and get use out of. I'm also the type of user that hasn't "purchased" every free Rack Extension from the shop.

Maybe they'll incorporate the idea to download all packs at once and then make the subscription a requirement to continue to access and use packs. That's how the kilohearts subscription works. You can also buy those separately.

Something to maybe consider is additional stress on the servers with people downloading all the packs at once.

If they add the option, they should definitely call it "pack rat" lol
