Uninstalling BOINC only removes the BOINC executables and libraries, it leaves the data directory with all work, applications, added projects etc. intact. Thanks! I guess I'll figure out where it put the data directory in case I ever want to fully uninstall it. |

Thanks! I disabled BAM altogether since I wasn't getting much out of it anyway and now it's working. I was mostly hoping someone could figure out why it still recognized my account automatically after I'd uninstalled BOINC the first time. I hadn't thought there would be anything left on the computer to tell it what account it should connect to until I signed in again on the new copy. |

Ok, there it is in Advanced View. I've already synchronized with BAM several times and it doesn't seem to help. |

I don't seem to have that option under Tools -- just "Add project" (though now I know how to do that; thanks!) and "Event Log". Should I be in Advanced View2 |

Running Windows 8 on Lenovo IdeaPad BoincMAnager 7.7.6 x64 I'm not sure what "installing as a service" means in this context -- I downloaded BOINC from this website, along with VMBox. I downloaded BOINC and manually added Seti@Home and World Community Grid. Those worked fine, but then I decided to register with BoincBAM to make it easier to add projects. BAM correctly shows the work my account has done in the two manually-added projects, but none of the new projects I added show up in BOINC and the BOINC Manager no longer gives me the option to add projects manually or to disconnect from BAM. I waited several days to see if it just took a while for things to update, but no change. Today I tried uninstalling BOINC and VMBox and reinstalling, thinking I would connect to BAM from the start, but it automatically recognized my account and kept going as if I had never uninstalled it. Is there something else I need to uninstall? Is there some way to get it to talk to BAM correctly without reinstalling it? Thanks for any help! |
