I wish sometimes I could force a wu to finsih, for varies reasons, but the only way I can currently do that is by suspending the current projects. worse than that, sometimes you suspend everything you have in order to force one wu to finish and the project downloads more work!!

Put all projects to No New Work (or No New Tasks) in BM's Project tab.
Then Suspend those projects you don't want to crunch.
Then suspend those results for that one project you don't want to run, until the one result you do want to run is singled out.

Yet why do it this way? BOINC will try to crunch all work within the deadline.

Micromanaging causes debt problems. BOINC and the projects are meant to set and forget. I hardly even touch any of my machines. They do their work, and I don't have headaches.
