No idea, but generally in 99% of the cases just installing a new version BOINC continues where it was stopped to do the upgrade.

If you didn't lose the work when you reinstalled, then it will restart automatically.

If you did something else and lost the work, then there is no* way to recover it.

* No practical way.

Re: How to restart old job, on new BOINC installation

It's not a upgrade of BOINC. I'v had to reinstall Windows from scratch, so BOINC too. What's exactly method to move data of old BOINC installation to new installation ?

Many thanks for your help.

If you deleted the BOINC data directory it's lost. BOINC installer does a kind of scan to trace pre-existing data, but it's not perfect.
