No Tasks show on Tasks Tab

I hope this helps.

Not much, I simply can't reproduce it. Tested with only CPU tasks, no luck, it keeps on working.
So I will redesign the whole thing, there is obviously something wrong as I got more than one report.
Let's see if this helps in 1.65.

OK 1.65 is ready.

I just installed version 1.65 and there is no change.

If I select only Show CPU tasks, I see no tasks. If I select only Show GPU tasks, I can see my CPU tasks.

I am not currently running any GPU tasks.

Sorry, but whatever you did, didn't work. At least not for me.

Also, it appears as though I have lost the ability to choose which projects I wish to see by selecting them in the second window under All Projects.

Hmm should not be possible.
Exit BoincTasks.

Run regedit and go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\eFMer\BoincTasks
Delete the whole folder filter.
Start BoincTasks again.

That fixed it the Show CPU tasks problem.

But I still have the problem with the Sidebar project selection that is new to version 1.65.

But I still have the problem with the Sidebar project selection that is new to version 1.65.

Was there since 1.54, but with 1.65 we lost it  , too much deactivated, should work again in 1.66.
In 1.64 it should work.

Sorry, I wasn't clear.

The Sidebar project selection is not new to version 1.65. The fact that it does not work is new to version 1.65. It is under the View menu and was off when I restarted after deleting the registry key.

BTW, has anyone else with this problem tried deleting the registry key to fix your show tasks problem?
A bit of a heads up, it will erase ALL of your settings, but you can save your colors in BT by going to File->Write color settings before deleting the registry key and then File->Read color settings after restarting BT. Anything else I think you will have to write down to preserve, like your column order, sort preferences or anything else you don't think you can remember.

Sorry I didn't try the registry thing first Fred. That might have saved you from having to re-write a working program.

I clarify:
Run regedit and go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\eFMer\BoincTasks
Don't delete that folder but delete ONLY the folder filter.

The not working Project sidebar is in the fixed item list for 1.66

My bad. I deleted the entire BoincTasks folder.

But it did fix the problem.
