Differences between BOINC 5 and BOINC 6:
(We will be adding to this FAQ when we come across questions not handled in this FAQ)

See BOINC 6 Release Notes for more information on this release.

The Big Difference: Where did BOINC install to?
BOINC 6 uses separate directories for its executables and data files. These directories cannot be merged any more as that will give problems. Data files are all the files that can be written to.

BOINC Programs directory
The default directory where BOINC will install its executables to is:
Windows 32bit: C:\PROGRAM FILES\BOINC
Windows 64bit: C:\PROGRAM FILES (x86)\BOINC for 32bit BOINC, C:\PROGRAM FILES\BOINC for 64bit BOINC
Linux: wherever you are unpacking it/BOINC/
Macintosh: /Applications/BOINC/

BOINC Data directory
The default directory where BOINC will install the data files to is:
Windows 98/SE/ME: C:\Windows\All Users\BOINC or C:\Windows\Profiles\All Users\BOINC (*)
Windows 2000/XP: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\BOINC (*)
Windows Vista/Windows 7: C:\ProgramData\BOINC (*)
Linux: wherever you unpack it/BOINC/
Macintosh OS X: /Library/Application Support/BOINC Data/

(*) This directory may well be hidden,
so either put the path to it directly into Windows Explorer,
or instruct Windows Explorer to show hidden files and folders.

How to do that?
For Windows 7: [- See here.]
For Windows 2000 + XP: See here.
For Windows Vista: See here.
