I recently expanded from six-track only to allowing additional workloads but now I am getting this:

9/29/2023 8:37:03 AM | LHC@home | Started download of vboxwrapper_26206_windows_x86_64.exe
9/29/2023 8:37:07 AM | LHC@home | Finished download of vboxwrapper_26206_windows_x86_64.exe (1958240 bytes)
9/29/2023 8:37:07 AM | LHC@home | [error] Signature verification failed for vboxwrapper_26206_windows_x86_64.exe
9/29/2023 8:37:07 AM | LHC@home | [error] Checksum or signature error for vboxwrapper_26206_windows_x86_64.exe

I assume the vboxwrapper is needed for the other LHC workloads, but I can't get any work started because of this error.

You may try this:
- stop work fetch
- cancel and report the CMS task currently in progress
- remove LHC@home from your project list
- exclude all BOINC dirs from your antivirus scanner
- reboot
- add LHC@home to your project list
- set your prefs to only get Theory tasks *)
- resume work fetch



*) CMS does not work atm due to other issues not related to yours.

Greetings,

I have done all you asked, but I am not getting any work from LHC.

Regards,
Eric

Since the OS is Windows ensure "Run native if available?" is unchecked here:
