It is actually normal for all incomplete files to initially be queued until LW settles down. Then one by one they will attempt to connect. Remember it's best to manually search for sources/new sources for the files to dwnld. If you attempt to dwnld too many at one time then there won't be enough slots or bandwidth for all the dwnlds so they will queue until a free position becomes available & they can find sources to dwnld from.

Not a good idea to use the Resume button on too many files in one session. This will definitely cause the files to queue for much much longer than normal & can play havoc with LW's connection quality & even slow LW down.

Manual searching is the key. Also some patience. I can open LW (in osx) & leave it on & after perhaps 30 to 60 mins a file or more will start to dwnld by itself. And this can continue for a few days on end without doing a single manual search or 'resume'. But you need to have LW well optimised to do that. I gave you links in the previous post. Good luck!
