When running BOINC under SU control, it's almost impossible to access one's personal account details at any project SU has attached you to, because of the anonymous account naming and secret password.

But it's even more impossible to navigate back from BOINC Manager (v7.14.2, under Windows) to this web site. The only clues that an Account Manager is in operation are the disabled 'Remove' button for auto-attached projects, and the changed wording on the Tools menu (Advanced view only).

I can't find a clickable link for the Science United website anywhere. There should be one (and the same for any other Account Manager).

I always felt Basic was too basic. After several years, there's no option to connect to an account manager in that view. In fact, there's nothing to point to Science United. Oddly, you have to switch to advanced view to see it which sort of defeats the point of trying to keep things simple.
