Importing assets from store taking over 27 hours to complete?

Hi,

Is there a trick/workaround to stop unity from taking what seems like forever to import assets to a project from the store?

I started a new build in unity hub 2018.1.f1 and used the menu from that to add a lot of assets from the store somewhere around 1.3Gb worth, that was 27 hours ago... it's still telling me to hold on...

Should I have done something else? Is there a way to get the assets into a project quicker?

Kind regards,
Sol
