 Can Science United make a Science Selection Advanced View tab or something similar that allows you to manually select which projects you want your computer to participate in? That would make things easier as I would love to just go through and select exactly which projects I care about as I have noticed that other users and I have come across issues from the current "Science" selection window, which I think should have an advanced view for those who want to get specific about their computer's tasks to work on. If not that solution, could Science United make a selection option that is "Manually Add/Remove Projects Only" so that if someone wanted to hand select projects, they could, and Science United would not remove/add them on its own? I think this would be an important addition to the program that would help the UI work better, please make a manual selection option for projects your computer will work on! Thank you!  |

 You can opt out from participating in specific projects by going to your Science Projects page, selecting any project you do not want to participate in and clicking on "Exclude".  |

 That doesn't work for all projects, after I excluded a few the Exclude button disappeared for other projects.  |

 Additionally, even when you do this, it still sometimes tries to remove World Community Grid even with everything set to 'Prefer'  |

 I would suggest going into Your Computers, then into "Science United info" for the host you are having this issue with and check to "How projects are chosen" section.  |
