Who can make OneStone start when Windows reboots. I live in an area where there are frequant power outages and it frosts my cake to discovdr that I have been running for days and not processing data. So my suggestion for an improvement is to make it restart once the power is back. Thank you very much

When installing the Windows version of BOINC, you could choose to install it as a service. But in fact I think even the non-service insrtallation will add boinc to the auto-start group it it gets autostartet...Hmmm...haven't installed BOINC on Win for a long time. can anybody help?

Bikeman,you are correct,it

Bikeman,you are correct,it adds shortcut to autostart group.
It could be blocked by antispyware...

What is meant by "make it restart once power is back"?Restart BOINC or computer(without user action like pressing the button :-) )

I believe it gets blocked by

I believe it gets blocked by Windows Defender on Vista if you have UAC on. I'm not sure about when UAC is off.

I know that regardless, when I start the manager (I always do it by hand) I have to tell UAC that BOINC really is ok.
