I set BOINC to run between 5pm and 6pm. Outside of those times, from 6pm one day to 5pm the next day, BOINC likes to run by itself. Because of this, I've uninstalled BOINC and I will not be using it again. ID: 44114 ·

Where is the Actitity Menu set to? is it set to 'Run based on preferences' or is is it set to 'Run always'? Where are you setting the restriction? at a Project's Computing Preferences page? or with Local Preferences? Local Preferences overide Web Preferences, Claggy ID: 44115 ·
