Re: does BOINC have auto-Update?

The automatic updater is called "KLiK". Once WCG is ready to upgrade, just download and install over the existing program. The process takes care of stopping the client, installing and restarting. All settings you had and work in progress is preserved.

Re: does BOINC have auto-Update?

At this time, I recommend sticking with 5.8 if at all possible.

Berkeley have successively released 5.10.7, 5.10.13 and 5.10.20. None of these are the final 5.10 release, and all have known bugs.

So, don't upgrade yet.

An auto-updater is planned, but it will be off by default.
