Hi,

I upgraded to 3.20 client this morning. I followed the instructions on the Predictor site which instruct you to de-install 3.19 and clear out stuff left over from the BOINC directory. After I installed 3.20, the work units I had, I think at least 1 was a seti, had gone.

When I reattached to the projects, it downloaded new wu's.

I have always just installed over the old version, I don't even exit anymore. The only exception is when there is a version that may be leaving trash it shouldn't behind.

Well yes...

If you clear the stuff out that is left over in the BOINC directory, you just cleared out the WUs.
