Try this: 1. before you open LW, go to the incomplete folder & list it in file size. Now delete all files that are zero in size. Then open LW, go to downlds window & click on top of Progress bar column. That will arrange them all by size. Now select all those that are 0% (ie: select the 1st one then holding SHIFT key scroll down until the last one & select it.) Then press Stop button. This will clear a lot of unnecessary loading of incomplete files that may be making LW struggle to get started quickly.
2. Do not use the Resume button to get all your downlds to continue after opening LW. This will make LW struggle & can affect LW's connection quality. Even for LW Pro.


Some hints that will help generally for using LW & obtaining good results: A well set-up LW can start to automatically continue its dwnlding after it's settled down perhaps 2 out of 3 times you open LW. Optimising LW & Maximising Uplds & Dwnlds A (1st post only) & also Part B which is even better & last & least are search & dwnld hints. The latter one I've been thinking about re-writing for some time. That's just for playing it safe. eg- I show all speeds & qualities.
