I have two lost workunits at one of my computers running BOINC climateprediction.net project. These workunits are not listed on the the Work tab, and they are not in client_state.xml file.
Workunits are zip files that are downloaded from the server.
Could anybody help me to add them to the client? I suppose client_state.xml file should be edited, but I was not able to do it correctly.
Thank you for your help.

It won\'t be possible unless you have a backup of client_state.xml containing those workunits Vladimir. The problem is that the zip files (and the 5 result files) have XML signatures, and they are invalid if those are wrong. There\'s no way for you to regenerate the signatures yourself.

If you do have a backup of the file it is possible to merge the results back in to the current file, but it requires a lot of care.
