Yes. At this point, I'd suggest:

Stop BOINC (strictly speaking, this means the BOINC Client, nothing to do with the Manager. A full exit from BOINC Manager should do it.)
Delete the file you have (correctly) identified
Start BOINC Manager again - which will in turn re-start the BOINC Client.

I've never run an account manager myself, so I'm hazy on details: I have heard reports that sometimes the rogue project returns after that process. If it does, come back here and we'll have another look.


Perfect Richard, it did the job.
To be safer, I removed the Rosetta folder inside Projects.

Now only Seti is running, with 100% of resources.
Many thanks

Possibly I did.
Unfortunately BAM does not show Rosetta anymore, only S@H.

The question is: which file in the Boinc folder could relate to this project in order to edit/delete it?

In the main folder I have a subfolder Projects which has other 2 folders, one for Seti and another one, EMPTY, named boinc.bakerlab.org_rosetta

I do not know where BM stores the list of active/current projects.
I gave a quick look to other files in the main folder and I found this one: account_boinc.bakerlab.org_rosetta.xml
Should I manually delete it? Or there is any other place to look at?

Thanks

I already reported the same problem on Rosetta site, without answers; possibly it depends on Boinc Manager, not on Rosetta.

I decided for some reasons to remove the project, firstly resetting it and then hitting the Remove button.
Rosetta still shows up in the the projects list, togheter with S@H which is the only other project.
BM tells that Rosetta still has 50% of resources assigned, and the Remove button is dimmed, so I can not do anything else.
All Rosetta crunching is suspended (no jobs pending), but I wonder if SETI is now using 100% of CPU power and time despite of BM different advise.

Is there something I can do?

BM version 7.12.1, localized Italian, OS Windows 7 x86
