1.-download and install pypy3 (for the best performance) from here:
https://www.pypy.org/download.html
2.-open a .txt document
3.-rename it like Sunfish.txt
4.-write on this Sunfish.txt:
D:\pypy3.7-v7.3.3-win32\pypy3 -u uci.py
(maybe you have other location on your PC for pypy3)
5.-save and rename Sunfish.txt like Sunfish.bat
6.-put Sunfish.bat in sunfish-master installation folder on your PC
7.-install Sunfish.bat like UCI engine.

THAT'S ALL ! SUCCESS !
