Perhaps the best way is to install the additional progams then uninstall the program (REMEMBERING TO RENAME THE ENGINE FOLDER to anything you like for the moment such as aEngines, bEngines,xEngines or FavoriteEngines etc.)This way you will be left with that particular engine. After the uninstall you can rename your Engines folder back to "Engines" I know in the past with other Fritz versions 5 and 5.32 and I believe Fritz 6, it would take the engine back out of the Engines folder during the uninstall. Renaming the Engine folder prevents this as it should not be able to find the engine file. This way you will keep only the files for one interface and retain all of the engines.
