Thats right.  What may have happened is that you have uninstalled the
previous version which unregistered the engines.
To get the engines back just re-installing will work, or you can register
the engines manually. To do this, open a command prompt, go to the directory
where RT is installed and give the following commands:

REGSVR32 chesstiger.dll
REGSVR32 engineext.dll
REGSVR32 engine.dll
