Thank you all for your help to answer RishonLeZion's question precisely.
----------------------------------------tonyh205's answer is the correct way to know what BOINC is or is not doing. Although in most cases Scribe's suggestion can show a high probability that will still be only a probability. If there is some CPU intensive application running, or a hidden process, or whatever worse swallowing all cycles, 100 % will just be misleading. |

Why can't you look at the "Services" tab in Windows Task Manager to see if BOINC is running as a service?
----------------------------------------And/Or look in Performance > Resource Monitor > CPU > Services in Windows Task Manager? I don't run BOINC as a service because it prevents BOINC from accessing the GPU, and I have no reason to conceal BOINC. Running BOINC 7.2.47 on Windows 7 Pro and when I hover over the new WCG icon I get: Computing is enabled GPU computing is enabled Network is enabled
