Greetings: I recently downloaded and installed the 7.2.28 client (without VirtualBox as I use that for other projects and am already far ahead of version 4.2.16). I can't say for certain that 7.0.64 did this, I don't think so, but on my Windows machines running the new client (all of them), it appears that NONE of the sort capabilities built into the client know how to sort! I'm talking about pretty much all of the column headers. Click on one, like Projects, and the projects don't sort in any order I can think of. Am I the only one seeing this? Is there a config change that needs to be made? Thanks! |

What do the indicator arrows on the column headers show? Arrow up, arrow down, no arrow? Mine sorts all right. |

They flip up and down as I click them, no change. Maybe it's just the my system... |

It can also be a bad installation. Try to start the BOINC installer again and when offered, do a repair installation. If that doesn't work, first try to download the installer again and repair install with that one. (boinc_7.2.28_windows_intelx86.exe (32bit) or boinc_7.2.28_windows_x86_64.exe (64bit)) And if that doesn't work: - Uninstall BOINC. - Start regedit.exe -- navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Space Sciences Laboratory, U.C. Berkeley - Remove this complete key. - Then reinstall BOINC. |

Well, the first Repair fixed the problem! I've been doing this for almost 14 years and never had THAT problem before, weird. Thanks, Jord!!! |
