Delete old tasks
I have a machine that I shut down a while ago, I was going to move it to a new location but never did. It sat powered off long enough that the tasks that it had downloaded have long ago been completed by other.Is there a way to delete them from the machine?

Re: Delete old tasks
Just select the tasks and click abort (in advanced view)

Re: Delete old tasks
Theoretically, hitting update would check with the WCG server and clear all that have expired, getting some tag like 'no longer usable', or 'no found on server', something along those lines. That's of course provided the machine is connected to the internet.
