Hi All,

I’m happily plugging away with the last computer I have left to run the program, my old PC that is doing nothing else. It has an old version of the systray client, and I was wondering if anyone knew:

If I download the new one, is the old one automatically replaced, or do I need to uninstall the old one? Also, if I do get the new client, do I loose the work unit it’s currently working on?

Thanks,

It looks like you will have a work unit finishing in the next week. Look here to see when it is credited:

I would leave the system on 24/7 until you see the work unit finish, probably just another day or so.

If you are running the system tray client, after this WU completes, stop the client, and erase it all. IIRC, there is a setting under Configure” that allows the WU to stop after completion. If you can't find it, just erase it all.

Load the most recent from here:

The current system tray client is 6.23. It is faster than the 5.2x version and allow you to crunch more varieties of molecules. The viewer is also great.

How long have you been folding? Four or five years now? That's great.

Please ping us if we can help!
