Will it reset my results if I upgrade to a different version of BOINC?

No - All your projects should just carry on as if nothing had happened. BUT do it this way.

Suspend all current work.
Suspend all projects.
Exit BOINC manager.

Make a back up of the BOINC folder.

If upgrading from a 4.19 or less then you must uninstall the BOINC Core Client.

If upgrading from greater than 4.19 then there should be no need to uninstall, the new client will overwrite the old one.

Download the new client.

Install the new client.

A version change will be detected and the BOINC manager will perform benchmark tests.

Resume all projects and work - and away it should go.
