Patch 4 released.

No details regarding the change though

The changelog.txt file should be in your ChessProgram15 folder. Here's what it says on mine:

GUI 15.4
- Program didn't answer in rated game if playing strength was set too high.
- Searching the current position from the board window didn't work.
- It's possible to set blitz or tournament time controls without starting a new game.
- After a Shootout the engine is switched off.
- Switching between pages in engine tournament dialog resetted entries.
- Switching analysis board on and off left some ribbon entries inaccessible.
- Minor bugfixes in Syzygy tablebase access.
- Notation sound files were searched in wrong directory.
- Crash in opponent info window on playchess.

Thanks

Still the Let's Check & Contribute Engine feature is bugged still.

I had to use Fritz 14 GUI in the meantime when i used that particular feature.

My Fritz 15 will not keep engines assigned to the Inactive folder in that folder.
It shows them going there, but as soon as I close the "Engine management" box and re-open it, the Inactive engine is back in the Active engine side.

Is anyone else having this problem?
