Please add Windows 11 ARM and Intel ARC GPU support to the project.

There are no distributed.net clients for those platforms yet (and considering the latest clients are from 2018 I wouldn't expect them to release anything new soon), but you might want to try using the AMD or Nvidia OpenCL clients with annonmous platform on your Intel GPU, at least in one case it worked.

How does one do that precisely ?
Thank you

Like this, without the ATI part. Try this:

Coproc type might be wrong, check what name other tasks for that device use if you get some error messages regarding this. Files you need to download are in the other thread.

The main question is, how the wrapper application will react if there's no Nvidia GPU in the system, the other system had one, the wrapper was trying to use it, but the dnet client was running the tasks on Intel GPU for some reason, so that's a different situation.

thx I'll investigate

Done, let's see how it does

Hmm... the good news is, that the wrapper still tried to run the client after it didn't find any Nvidia GPU, it just wrote it to the log as a warning.

What does the client print with "-gpuinfo"?

It doesn't seem to find any info about the GPU, so this is worse than this. No idea than, only someone from distibuted.net can help you but I've really no idea how to contact them and if they are doing any maintanance of the code anymore or provide any support, there's no forum, only some stone age stuff like mailing lists and IRC. ;-)

Probably submitting that as a bug / feature request into their bug database is the only thing you can do, but I wouldn't hold my breath while waiting for their response.
