Hi Bruce. Not sure who this is directed towards as those words
'I've uninstalled, reinstalled, downloaded fresh copies, nothing seems to work- they still go nuts. Got any ideas there, u_f?'
are uncle fuzzy's and not mine. In any case I'll share my experiences Re: 3)

Q) Under what conditions does the client rename itself and/or does it move to a new location? Please list the locations that you've seen the client and the names involved.
A) FahMon does not rename or move itself - it renames the folders it is monitoring (
Name:) and/or changes the path it uses (
Location:) to locate the data files it needs. Changes to both the
Name: field and
Location: field appear to be random. Sometimes the settings are transposed between folding clients, sometimes FahMon adds spurious information to the fields, sometimes the fields are replaced by miscellaneous symbols.
Q) Are you certain that FAH was stopped when you did your "edit"?
A) All of the FAH clients were running normally. The problems with FahMon have no effect on the folding clients themselves, they only interfere with FahMon's ability to monitor them.
Q) How do you start FAH?
A) All clients started with desktop shortcuts, as is FahMon.
Q) How many clients are you running on that machine, and which one(s)?
A) FahMon has had issues on three machines. One has 7 clients (4 GPU + 3 UNI), one has 9 (8 GPU + 1 UNI), the last has 12 (8 GPU + 4 UNI). All GPU clients are 6.23 systray, all UNI are 6.23 console
Q) When was the last time you reinstalled the client and why was that done?
A) All 28 FAH clients as well as the 3 instances of FahMon are original installs. I've had no issues with any of the folders requiring reinstallation, and the issues with FahMon ended when I locked each of them to a single CPU core.
