Can I choose my task applications? Most of my Gravitational Jobs fail

I have a problem with most of the gravitational wave analysis jobs:

13.03.2021 16:00:51 | Einstein@Home | Computation for task h1_0695.60_O2C02Cl4In0__O2MDFS3a_Spotlight_696.40Hz_894_2 finished
13.03.2021 16:00:51 | Einstein@Home | Output file h1_0695.60_O2C02Cl4In0__O2MDFS3a_Spotlight_696.40Hz_894_2_0 for task h1_0695.60_O2C02Cl4In0__O2MDFS3a_Spotlight_696.40Hz_894_2 absent

Unfortunately I know no option to choose the applications to download. So I have to download, stop and terminate a lot of jobs.

Is it possible to specify an option for us like it is in the World Community Grid or LHC@home ?

thanks for help

Jochen

While logged in here at Einstein, first determine what location your machine is assigned to, then adjust the project preferences regarding applications:

Account|Dashboard

- click on the name of the computer of interest
- observe without changing the current value of the scrollbox for Location for that computer (it will be generic, home, work, or school)

Account|Preferences|Project

- adjust the "preference Set" scroll box to be that for the computer you wish to control
- wait for the page to repaint
- scroll down to the Applications section
- check only the boxes for work you wish to receive

- To avoid being sent tasks processed by beta test applications, you may wish to select "No" as the answer to "run test applications?" in the Beta Settings sections

- click Save Changes at the bottom of the page
