Problems with BOINC Agent with VISTA - UAC

Hello ALL.

I just installed Boinc Agent in my computer with VISTA Home Edition.

I choose the option to install in all users on my computer.

Only I and My wife are administrators, about my kids I use UAC to control the access and software instalation.

But when they logged in the vista, there is a warning about Boinc Agent. The Vista doesn't allow run the agent.

After, I realized that even when I log in the system the boinc agent are not executed. I must run it mannualy.

Anybody could help me?

Hello ricbrandao,
Here are the Vista installation instructions.

The most important is to install to a user-defined directory such as C:/BOINC.

Ricardo, you might also consider installing Boinc in service/protected mode (see item 14 of the thread indicated by Lawrence). This way the Boinc client would start and run continuously from booting to shutdown, whether a user is logged on or not.

Cheers. Jean.

OK Guys,

Thank so much.

I reinstall BOINC in a different directory and as a service.
