Arena has made this easy enough for everybody to use, it comes with 5 engines bundled if you choose the large download. You run the setup and follow the wizard, just like with any other windows program. If you want more engines you have to download them, ie. use google, unzip and then install. If they know how to google and unzip they will also figure out how to install it in Arena. >For example i remember at office that to backup you had to press a few years >ago: > >"enter escape enter" > >No office girl managed that.
