When I download a file it says it has downloaded it correctly, but there's just a ".part" file on my desktop, like it didn't finish downloading. Can someone help me please? Thanks

It is possible that anti-virus software is corrupting downloaded files or is otherwise interfering with downloading files.

Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.
