the setiathome icon seems to have disappeared from my windows task bar so I now have no way to control things. yet I have 4 processes consuming 99% of my cpu. how do I get the task bar item back. |

Via the Start menu->BOINC->BOINC Manager. Or just type BOINC in search. Apparently Windows removes the pinned icon when you update BOINC, because the installer will uninstall the previous version. Not much that can be done about that, other than laboriously pinning BOINC Manager to the task bar again. |

Since you're still up, ask whether he's talking about the main task bar, or the notification area near the clock. That one will still be present, but hidden. Can be configured. |

Since you're still upI am not. Lying in bed, listening to the wind battering my window, pondering if I should get up to close it. But I'm just warm. Besides, didn't you just ask him that? 😠|

tks, that did the trick. I needed it when I noticed that work was not suspended when I was using the machine as seti taking up 99% of cpu. |
