I uninstalled Fritz 17 and i reinstalled it, so the problem is solved. Then i extracted Fat Fritz 2 from the last Fritz 17 and i crated the UCI engine.

Where is the directory of Fat Fritz 2 engine. APPDATA folder ?

It is with the SF exe. The one CB dubbed "fat-fritz2-x86-64-avx2.exe' Youe exe may be named differently for a different arch.

Copy and paste this in a ming64 window and it runs at the terminal for me.

/c/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/Common\ Files/ChessBase/Engines.uci/Fat\ Fritz\ 2/fat-fritz2-x86-64-avx2.exe

The backslashes are "escape characters", required since Microsoft decided spaces and special characters are perfect for using in a directory path. Always use a backslash before a space or a special character if using a terminal windows. I think in Windows you alway also quote the whole path and it should work too, I'm just used to using backslashes.

$ /c/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/Common\ Files/ChessBase/Engines.uci/Fat\ Fritz\ 2/fat-fritz2-x86-64-avx2.exe
