I was getting the same message, but now I get this one as well:

As far as I can tell I am only running it once.
Also like the earlier message, I cannot remove it as that option is greyed out.

Still getting the trojan message.
I am going to delete this project until someone says it is all clear.

Same thing here.
I can't upload or report finished projects.

5) Message boards : Questions and problems : PC shutting down when Boinc Manager is on (Message 90895)

Well it happened again today. The only thing that could be causing this is something project that is running on Boinc. I had it turned off for a few days and no shutdown. This morning I started it up again, and when I came home it was shut down again.
I do not know enough about where to look in the windows event viewer to see what may have happened when it shut down.
I may have to start eliminating projects, or stop using boinc completely.
This only started happening after I added some new projects via the Science United manager, so maybe it is one of those that is doing this.
They would be Amicable Numbers and Einstein at home. I am pretty sure all the rest were running when I connected to BoincStats instead.
Again, any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks for bearing with this thread.

All others say waiting to run.
I will leave it on today and run the event log later if it shuts down again.

Gary,
Thank you.
This laptop is less than two years old, so doubt hardware is an issue.

Thanks for the replies, and what you all say makes sense, so maybe I did not explain it well.
I did not mean the "Manager" per se was shutting me down, but apparently either the jobs that it was running or some setting for how and when the jobs run.
It only happens when Boinc is actually connected and running. When I shut it down completely it is not a problem.
So it is either one or more of the new tasks it is running or some other setting I may have changed inadvertently.
I am running the latest version of Boinc.
Running hot is not a problem as I have a gaming laptop Lenovo Legion Y520 that has extra fans that kick in when it is running intensive things, and nothing else is running at night or during the day when I am not using the laptop and my preferences are set to not run Boinc if the laptop is in use.
Again I have tried starting and stopping different things to troubleshoot, and it is only when Boinc is running that it shuts down.
What other info can I give to further diagnose this?

For a couple nights, and days in a row my PC was shutting itself down.
First I thought it was because I switched from Boincstats to Science United in my Manager, but after switching back to Boinc, it still kept happening. When I shut down boinc completely, I have not shut down at all.
I had no problems for years before making that switch above.
No other software or hardware changes have been made to my laptop.
I am on Windows 10 Home version 1803.
Can anybody think of some other setting that may have changed, or new jobs that may be running that could do thIs?
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
