I updated to the latest SETI and now all of my work downloads fail. Anybody have an idea as to what is going on with my machine or SETI?

Your computers are hidden, we can't tell you why either.

What Claggy is saying is if you unhide your computers, folks might be able to take a look and find out what could be going wrong.
Although it they are actual download failures, they might be hard to analyze from this end.

What time yesterday - It was Tuesday, and ever Tuesday from early morning (CA time) for a few hours there is a planned, and announced outage and no downloads of either data or applications happens

I just changed to unhide my computers but, I don't what that will do. My primary system is a quad-core.

Try Resetting the project and downloading the files again.

As the host was working correctly with BOINC 7.2.39, it's hard to guess what has gone wrong. I agree with Claggy that a project reset is worth trying, but if it doesn't help then perhaps a repair install of BOINC 7.2.42 should be the next thing to try. Under normal circumstances the update of BOINC versions should not have removed all those files.

Can you post the Boinc startup please, the first 30 lines or so will do.

I uninstalled and reinstalled Boinc and SETI and the downloads continue to fail, no problem with other projects. As I was getting ready to post again, the god of SETI smiled and downloaded some work which is now running.

Thanks everybody for all of the suggestions.

A while back I was getting slow downloads on one computer, the other was OK- they both use the same modem.
Rebooted the offending PC- no better. Rebooted the modem- all better.
