Hi there.

I noticed today that my backups from my work server have increased by 4 gb since I started crunching numbers with Boinc. The thing is that these backups are sent via the web and I'm wondering if there is an easy way of changing project file store folder to another drive so that it wont tag along with my OS backup?


Best regards,
Geir Helge.

If I understand you right you want to move your BOINC folder. If so do the following:

1. Exit BOINC Manger
2. Copy your BOINC folder to the drive where you want it to be
3. Uninstall BOINC
4. Install BOINC and by setup enter the path to the folder where you have copied the BOINC folder in step 2.

Moved the thread to the right forum.

Easy as that, huh.

Thanks for a quick answer.
