1) Questions and Answers : Windows : Which files can be deleted? (Message 34430)

Hi there,

I am trying to free up some space on my machine (running Windows XP). Below the following folder
C:\\Program Files\\BOINC\\projects\\climateprediction.net\\
there are 5 folders; 2 with names hadcm3istd_*, 2 with hadcm3lbm_*, and 1 with name hadsm3fub_julf_005957782. The first 4 are all between 400-500MB.

Looking at the BOINC Manager messages tab, I see the following message:

2008.Jul.30 9:35:46 AM|climateprediction.net|Restarting task hadsm3fub_julf_005957782_9 using hadsm3 version 506

Assuming this corresponds to the last folder mentioned, I am guessing I can\'t touch that. Are those first 4 folders active? Can I delete them? Can I be sure their data been uploaded to ClimatePrediction before I delete them?

Thanks in advance,
David

Hi there,

I need to rebuild my laptop in the next 24 hours. I don\'t want to lose the months of processing and the BOINC files. Ideally, I am hoping someone can tell me the exact files that need to be archived, where I can then reformat my C-drive, reinstall BOINC, and then drop in my old files to resume processing.

Thanks in advance,
David
