    I gots these folders:

    C:\BOINC_Data\projects\einstein.phys.uwm.edusymbols

    and

    C:\BOINC_Data\projects\einstein.phys.uwm.edu\symbols

    Why on Earth would Einstein need both thems folders?

      Hi!

      BOINC itself (under windows) will create a symbol store direcory for each project, this is the "symbols" subdir in the project data folder. The other directory is probably a left-over from an older BOINC version that handled things differently (probably because of a bug in BOINC).
