Some MilkyWay@home tasks get to 99.3% and 99+% (for example) - almost completed and just stop there, never completing properly.

I cannot restart these tasks.

The PC carried on and continued with other MilkyWay@home tasks.

I presume there was some problem with those files.

So, in the absence of any advice, have aborted those tasks which have sat there, frozen at 99+% completion for a few days now.

Any advice is appreciated.

Kind regards

Kerry

Lots of tasks get near the end and can then take awhile to get over the last little bit and finish. Do not abort them, just let them finish. If you didn't abort them that there could be a problem, the website says 2 of your tasks were 'user aborted', but that is NOT always accurate.
