Genius 2 has ONLY two files:  Opening library and the executable.
The opening library can be deleted and it will still be 2450 USCF on 50 MHZ.
I strongly recommended to delete the opening library because it is incomplete.
The blitz or quick rating is rated higher than the slower tournament rating.
Give it a blitz rating of 2650 USCF on 50 MHZ (game in 5 minutes or game in 10
minutes).
