1. Make sure you have much spare space on HDD. If not, choose an alternate partition/drive to save downloads to.

2. Defragment ALL your drives/partitions at least every 2nd week or week if you use LW frequently.

Spare space is a very important factor. Especially on the system drive. So free up space & make sure it's totally defragmented.
