I am trying to remove Boinc from my computer. I go to add/remove programs, then choose Boinc. It starts to uninstall the program, then I get a pop-up window that says: "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable. Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'BOINC.msi' in the box below. Use source: C:\Users\[MY NAME]\Downloads\ (with a button to browse)" I tried to search my computer for BOINC.msi and it can't find it anywhere. Can anybody help me? |

That's what we call a corrupt installer. See this FAQ for ways around it. |
