how can i restore the messages tab?
hi there i just wondered in from 5.8.16 got a new second hand win7 pc with a core i5 and 8GB ram and figured it would run the newest version of boinc 7.4.42

but the messages tab is missing i found a error log option but i can't seem to find an option to make that a tab

no advanced options start switches or config files i can find with the option

i could just go back to using 5.8.16 like i did on my old computer its worked fairly well for 8 years now it can probably run for a few more

has anything important been fixed in the last 8 years?

"Message tab was MOVED" to it's OWN WINDOW - PRESS CTRL+SHIFT+E at SAME TIME opens the "Message Tab".

There have been LOTS of changes and improvements over the years. Take some time and read through the forum titled "Message boards : BOINC Manager". Lots of reading to catch up on in 8 years of changes.
