It seems to be on a temp directory which does not exist anymore. I tried to remove the old Boinc, but recieved the same message. Tried to go to an older version and received the same message. Presently I can not recover from this situation. Can some one please advise me as to what to do. ID: 10101 ·

Can some one please advise me as to what to do. I seem to remember that somebody wrote that you need to re-install the same version (5.9.4) as the installation file (.msi in this case) is not cached. After that, you can immediately update to newer version. *Metod ...* ID: 10102 ·
