I asked before and got no answer. Even tried help over according to the CLI version, "help@foldingathome.stanford.edu" but that doesn't work either.

I originally played it safe and made the CLI interface ask for confirmation before connecting to the internet to upload a finished WU. I'd like to change that default now, but I don't know how.

Because I am away a lot from my PC I turned it off if I know a WU will be done soon and I won't be back for 3 days. That means I get nothing done for 3 days. So, help me fix that already.

Thanks
Aris

The console version. All I do today is double click on the FAH3Console exe file and it goes. I never type anything in to start it.

type

FAH3Console.exe -config

at command line to reconfig options.

Oh, like from the Run command, I'll try that as soon as I start a new frame. 20 minutes each I don't want to waste any time.

Thanks

FAH3Console.exe -config

Yes, that is correct, but if you click START and then RUN and type that in, it doesn't find it. You can then browse for the correct directory, but then it complains FAH3Console is not an EXE file. So.... I open an old fashioned DOS command prompt, work my way down all the directories, and type in the above and poof it asks me all the questions again.

Now all I need is an UPS, since the extreme weather here is wreaking havoc on the AC lines. The good thing is I don't need to put the monitor on the UPS 99.9% of the time, so I'll get decent uptime from an APC 650BKUS. About $110.

Thanks very much.

Thanks people, my last problem has been to keep the dial automatically box checked off when the program needs to connect. I checked it off but Windows does not like to remember the setting. Damn Win-duhs.

redo your config and tell it not to automatically connect
