Hi all
I recently reformatted my drive and when I reinstalled BOINC I get an error that I am not a user. I still have the original email that I got when I signed up. But when I use that info to attach to the project, I get this error.
Any ideas why this is happening? It happened with all the other BOINC projects, with the only exception of Predictor.

Did you maybe use quite an old BOINC version for the reinstall?

You should download one from a running project, the one at Predictor might not be a recent one at the moment as they are working on upgrades.

Working versions should be 4.09 or 4.13 (not sure about older ones)
