Account Managers are alternatives to the BOINC Manager. If you look at the Manager, the top line will tell you which one you're using. And to use one of the others, you would have had to select one, using Menu > Tools > Use Account Manager |

i couldn't really tell, but i was able to sign into the two projects individually, so looks like i am working. Thanks for your help, Shirva33 |

If you've just done a straightforward installation on your new PC then you are not using an account manager. You don't need to use an account manager - in the past I've managed eight computers running BOINC without using one, others use them to control just one PC. |
