'Ow do, I recently upgraded my PC and would like to install BOINC on my new PC. Any advice on keeping details and settings Settings are on project websites, if you haven't edited them "locally" from the manager. So it would be just a matter of installing BOINC and attaching the projects back. Now, if you had a large workunit that is still running and you want to continue (like Climateprediction), then definitely go for Sekerob's solution :) ID: 14705 ·

You make a backup of the complete BOINC folder from the old machine and restore it to the new machine. Details of how to back up and restore the BOINC folder in the README about backups: http://www.climateprediction.net/board/viewforum.php?f=44 ID: 14706 ·
