Unitl recently the Statistics graph displayed from a previous date (I think it was a month ago) to current-date. It now displays from yesterday until one month in the future.

I have reset the computer's date once or twice trying to overcome a date limit in FlightSim Manager, but that's another story. I wonder if it is that which has apparently messed up BOING Statistics view?

Whatever the reason, how can I reestablish the view to which I am accustomed?

Well, is your computer date correct these days? Or is it one month into the future? BOINC uses the computer clock and date to write those entries into the project's statistics_*.xml file.

So for instance, the Einstein entries are in statistics_einstein.phys.uwm.edu.xml

You could try to edit the the file and take out the last entry. Do exit BOINC before and restart it afterwards. If you don't want to fuss around too much, deleting the statistics file will show you a new statistics picture on restarting BOINC. You will have lost the past data then, though.

Yes, of course it is. I'm no genius but I'm not stupid either.

You could try to edit the the file and take out the last entry.

Would you tell me how to do that please? The file's content is:

You can edit XML files with Notepad. (Right click on the file, Open with..., choose Notepad from the list). When you have taken the part out, save the file (not save as..) and exit Notepad.

Many thanks. That's done the trick.

Much obliged.
