Jesse<p>For any <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/BOINC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BOINC</span></a> users out there, I'm trying to reinstall it on my desktop. I think my antivirus messed it up. I'm neither able to uninstall or install it properly, getting the same error in both cases. So clearly, I'm missing something somewhere. Anyone have any ideas?<br>BOINC dialog The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.<br>Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'BOINC.msi' in the box below.<br>Use source: combo box collapsed<br>edit Alt+ u selected C:\Windows\Downloaded Installations\{5ABBFE77-CD7A-4A64-9A53-C47494545F09}\<br><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/WCG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WCG</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/WorldCommunityGrid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WorldCommunityGrid</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Tech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Tech</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Help" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Help</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/CrowdComputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CrowdComputing</span></a></p>
davecykl<p>Hmm, I see that the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/WorldCommunityGrid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WorldCommunityGrid</span></a> website is finally actually reachable again, but completely borked. Still nothing doing on its <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/BOINC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BOINC</span></a> services, either. I guess their very prolonged maintenance outage is overrunning?

Jesse<p>I've been using <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/WorldCommunityGrid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WorldCommunityGrid</span></a> for... wow... four years now.

But almost everyone I've ever tried to get interested in the program is against it and I don't understand why.
