Missing Web sites after system restore
After the system (W7U SP1, i7 CPU X980 @ 3.33GHz 24GB RAM)
was restored the BOINC Manager 6.12.34 (x64) Projects tab showed the following:
Commands
Update
Suspend
No new tasks
Reset Project
Remove
Properties

Web sites
World Community Grid (Only)

Prior to the restore the following was displayed:
Commands

No new tasks

My Grid
Result Status
Device Profiles
Research

Help

I've been poking around with out success. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

Re: Missing Web sites after system restore
When you select World Community Grid (left click once on its line) you will see the Web Sites part in the left column.

Re: Missing Web sites after system restore
I have noticed the same thing with any new Boinc installs.
I would guess it has something to do with the server upgrades ?
When you first install Boinc and attach to WCG it downloads a , I guess you would call it a master file , and it seems that has changed.
Now there is only one World Community Grid button and the others are missing.
Clicking on that button just opens the WCG home page.
I had been kind of used to going straight to My Grid and Result Status, but no more...

Re: Missing Web sites after system restore
OK, I read too fast the first time and now I see what you mean.
I'll ask the techs to check the current version of file account_www.worldcommunitygrid.org.xml for missing gui_url entries.
