account_www.worldcommunitygrid.org.xml and statistics_www.worldcommunitygrid.org.xml are blank

This was caused by Windows crashing. In the log file the first two error messages I have are that these files cannot be parsed. I don't mind if my statistics are lost. What is the best thing to do?

If they're blank, I don't think you can reset the project in BOINC b/c it reads your account key from that file to do so.
I think you need to completely remove and re-add the project. If you're using the exact same machine, it shouldn't wipe your site stats for that computer.

What is the best thing to do?


if you have a backup; then
stop boinc
restore the two files from backup
start boinc
else
recreate the two files, e.g. append above
implement a backup strategy and test it
fi
