...this is very strange. Someone else experience same behaviour with Shredder Classic ?
That is normal, because those options are set elsewhere in the Shredder GUI. Here I can see the "Threads" option in Shredder 11 with the Mingw compile from Jim:

Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first
place. Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you
are, by definition, not smart enough to debug it.

// Set the number of active threads
int newActiveThreads = get_option_value_int("Threads");
newActiveThreads will be undefined. But how is it possible the GUI apparently does not know it should send a value of this parameter to the engine, if I understand the process right, the Shredder GUI does not seem to know there is an option called "Threads". But I don't know if anything in the Stockfish code was changed that can explain why previous Stockfishes apparently run on James machine, but this one does not. Can't figure that one out. Sorry. Anyone else may try to explain now
