Rename one or Two computers. Although the way you state above will NOT work at least for me. The 6 digit located in the engine file needs a single digit. Using 6o or 6b will NOT work. This is why in the case of Junior I use 60 and 61 as the 60 could not be changed to 6a. For me the only way is to rename the eng to say Fritz 1 Open the eng file in a hex editor and change instances of Fritz 6 to 1. Anyway if that way works for you no problem. Thanks.
