How can I prevent Bionic (4.25) from starting-dowloading a new task after finishing current one AUTOMATICALLY? Only thing I found is to SUSPEND current task(s)/project(s). But this s not what I am looking for. I would like to finish all running tasks and THEN go to suspend mode. Any idea?

I understand that you can change your preferences in your account to leave at least a value that is as big as your hard disk.

From my understanding , its better to use a value larger than your hard disk, eg 100 Gb if you have an 80 Gb hard drive. Remember to change this value after you have detached CPDN, as your other projects won't download any workunits either.

Forgot to mention that it is the 'Leave at least x Gbytes free' felid you have to change.

I don't think this answer is all that clear.


Quoting Les Bayliss from another post:


The recommended way to prevent new wu downloads is to go into your General preferences, and set "Leave at least" to a value larger than your hard disk size.
