Note that I installed part of the KQPP vs KQ some months ago from hyatt site. Note also that I do not have even all the 5 piece tablebases set but only part of the tablebases(I have no 4 vs 1 tablebases and part of the 3 vs 2 that include pawns are also not installed). I simply removed the only 6 piece tablebase file that I have from the tablebase folder and I will probably not use it in the near future. I downloaded today the KBP vs KN tablebases that I did not have before today and downloading both files took 20-30 minutes and I do not like giving my computer to download tablebases for hours so from time to time I download one interesting tablebase to add to my set. wilhelm tell me that missing tablebases today except 4 vs 1 are KPP vs KN,KB,KQ KNP vs KP,KN KB KR KQ KNP vs KP KBP vs KP(w)(I am going to install it first in order not to have more problems) KBB,KBN vs KP KRP vs KP,KN,KQ KRN KRR vs KP KQP vs KP,KN,KR KQQ KQR KQN KQB vs KP Uri
