Ethereal questions

[Chessqueen]

When you download the ethereal ZIP file does it automatically install the small net for RP endings and another one for KP endings, and if NOT, how do you make it work with Ethereal

Works out of the box. You do not need to change any settings, nor do you even have the ability to. You cannot change the weights. You cannot turn them off. Unless you decide to modify the binary file like a lunatic.

I would like to donate $20.00 to your project for developing such a great program or chess engine, but I have a question is the website to donate a secure website that only you will receive it? Another question that I have I downloaded Ethereal, but I still can NOT get it to work Arena can NOT find the executable file anywhere. I Need help, and thanks against for developing such strong chess engine which is a la par with Komodo 13.3 or close to Komodo 14.

NOTE: I notice that in this division it is very hard for any engine with Black to win, the most that they can do is draw with black, since they are so close in ratings https://tcec-chess.com/live.html

So far you have not even told, what exactly you have downloaded. No one can help you before...
You are only whining that you cannot find a binary in what you have downloaded so far. That's quite funny.
How about simply posting a link to what you have downloaded?

I am probably using the wrong executable for windows 10 64 bit, and where should I place it ? https://github.com/AndyGrant/Ethereal/r ... 4-pext.exe

Well, Arena has nothing to do with it. You should simply know what hardware you have.
Also it is completely irrelevant where to place it...

It is a dell all in one like this, but mine has 16 MB memory everything else is identical Windows 10 64 bit. I also have two other systems, but first I would like to install it on my daughter computer which is this one ==> https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/desktop ... lsrc=aw.ds

I Figured it out, it was the ethereal 12.75x64 popcnt.exe, it is working now !
I will continue enjoying the TCEC match where Ethereal is leading https://tcec-chess.com/live.html
