Call for your help to test TreeThreader application on Windows Machine
A certain percentage of Windows hosts are identified to fail running the treeThreader application, however the error message we get from the BOINC client is not enough to debug the error, so I would like to call for your help to run this application independent of BOINC, and post the error message here if you see any.Instructions:1 download the Application file from here, zip format (http://casathome.ihep.ac.cn/test/ICT.zip), rar format (http://casathome.ihep.ac.cn/test/ICT.rar). 2.unzip ICT.rar or ICT.zip 3. run cmd on your Windows machine (http://casathome.ihep.ac.cn/test/in1.png)4. cd to the ICT directory where you unzip ICT.rar5. execute the command (http://casathome.ihep.ac.cn/test/in2.png): treeThreader.exe config T0666 PTemp.listNote: please ignore the error msg "Open Checkpoint file error", and this program lasts about 2 minutes. Please report any other errors you see on your cmd terminal and your platform information such as OS name, version , 32bit or 64bit or simply your host id.Thanks in advance for your help!

Yes
35hrs 48% complete est time remaining is 32hrs.
I detest long running tasks so I have set no new work.
