Version: 7.6.33 (x64) wxWidgets Version: 3.0.1 I'm running SETI on Windows 10. I recently noticed that BOINC Manager doesn't appear in the task bar any more, and I have to start it from the Start/Programs list. I have no idea where to look or what to look for to fix this problem Does anyone know what the trouble may be? Equal rights for equal responsibilities. Equal opportunities for equal abilities. |

Check in: BOINC Manager->Options->Other options->General, that Run Manager at login? is checked. |

Did you try un-installing Boinc and reinstall? All instances. I have had this problem before. It should retain your work units as they are kept in different folder. I think a Win 10 update broke mine at some point. Try Linux Mint :) |

Yes, it is checked. Try unchecking it, Fully exiting Boinc Manager (the client can be left running), restart Boinc Manager, recheck it, Shut down Boinc fully, then restart the host and see if it works. Claggy |

Thank you Keithsplace and Claggy. I had to reinstall BOINC Manager, and it's now starting at switch-on. Equal rights for equal responsibilities. Equal opportunities for equal abilities. |
