I only download torrents with high amounts of seeds but for some reason I never get the full download speed that my bandwidth can handle. I have Sprint DSL and the best download speed I can reach is 150kB/s but I almost never get it on Bit torrent clients.

I suggest you to follow the methods provided below and check if it helps.
Method 1: Run the Windows Store Apps troubleshooter.
- Type “Troubleshooting” in search box and press Enter.
- Click on View all on top left pane.
- Select “Windows Store Apps” from the list and follow the prompts for troubleshooting.
Method 2: Check for the issue in a Clean Boot state. A clean boot is performed to start Windows by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This helps eliminate software conflicts that occur when you install a program or an update or when you run a program in Windows 10, Windows 8.1, Windows 8, Windows 7, or Windows Vista. You may also troubleshoot or determine what conflict is causing the problem by performing a clean boot.
* Place the computer in a Clean Boot and check if the issue is occurring due to any third party programs.
