Un-Installing The BOINC Client Software

From Unofficial BOINC Wiki

[edit] General

Ok, you have decided to stop using the BOINC Client Software and your participation in the science projects that are a part of the glorious exploration of our universe. We are sorry to lose you but will give you directions on how to remove the BOINC Client Software from your computers.

At this point I would call you a quitter, but I have been told that I am too negative and that I call people uncomplimentary names so I will not do that in any shape manner or form. Though I have to admit I can't imagine any reason someone would want to stop supporting research. Ok, I was just kidding.

There are lots of reasons that you might want to remove the software from your system and we will tell you how to do that. But first, we have to know if you want to:

• Completely remove the BOINC Client Software and all of the Science Applications:
  • Immediately, abandoning all work in the Work Buffer and in progress.
  • As soon as all work in the Work Buffer and in progress has been completed.
• Remove only one or more of the Science Applications:
  • Immediately, abandoning all work in the Work Buffer and in progress.
  • As soon as all work in the Work Buffer and in progress have been completed.
