Computation Error on Computer Restart

Hello,
I am getting Computation Error on the running tasks when I restart my computer.



I am using BOINC 7.8.3

Re: Computation Error on Computer Restart

This has been mentioned before. The solution I have found is to exit BOINC, wait about 10 seconds and then shut down the computer. Then when you restart, the work units should pick up where you left off.
Cheers

I think the problem is not present on 7.2.47. right? I installed 7.2.47. There is no problem I think.

Re: Computation Error on Computer Restart

If I know that my PC needs a reboot, I try and make sure that I have no MIP WUs either running or downloaded.

Re: Computation Error on Computer Restart

I believe the problem is with the MIP work units and not the version of BOINC. I have had problems with BOINC V7.6 and V7.8.3.

The solution above to close BOINC from within boincmgr and then shut down the PC works.

Re: Computation Error on Computer Restart

The official supported version by WCG is 7.2.47. And I don't have the problem any more with the official WCG BOINC Client.

Re: Computation Error on Computer Restart

I created a program to workaround this problem .

Executable file is available here, it requires .Net Framework 4.6.
