If you've installed Shredder 8 then the Shredder 8 CB engine will be in the
engine folder. This engine shows in all GUI's installed. You can't therefore
install Shredder 8 UCI as Shredder 8 a;ready exists. You can move Shredder 8
engine from the engine folder, install the UCI Shredder 8 then put back the
Shredder 8 engine.
