Clicking on View raw is a working download link for cpu.zip tool. I have not downloaded it, so I do not know if it is a working executable or if it is up to date.

I notice that SF13 displays the score as a win percentage (or win/draw/loss percentages) now rather than the traditional pawn eval. My question is this: What time limit is assumed and how many threads for these figures? Obviously the percentage of draws in the start position goes up steadily with more time and more threads, so a specified draw percentage at the start only makes sense for a defined time limit and hardware.
I don't see that...but it would be nice for preparing line - like the Nibbler GUI does for LC0.
Seems like I've inferred from discussion of Komodo MTSC with multi-PV that it does something vaguely similar...but the true percentage is hidden. Do correct me if I am wrong - I do not yet have a Komodo or Dragon with MCTS.
I take that back - I do see it, in both the Fritz GUI and Chessbase analysis. Only it seems to be working under the Fritz GUI...and I have 'win %' checked in Chessbase analysis...but it displays no percentage. Hmmm....

Why do you think so? Below is output from an official download version. Neither can I see win percentage nor an option for it.

Günther he must mean the latest Fritz 23 Update, which now shows percentage of wins, than actual score of the win itself. All he has to do is revert to GUI update 21, than percentage of wins will be gone...
I see, the change to win/draw/loss percentages was due to updating the Fritz version just before installing SF13. I didn't think of that. Not sure which way I like better.
Why doesn't the download include the nn-62ef826d1a6d.nnue file that is referenced after you register the uci in the gui?
I didn't even think of it and the Fritz gui played just fine without even complaining. It was the Banksia gui that alerted me that the file was missing.

Great job guys! Thanks a lot for this amazing engine!
One thing I always was wondering. Is it difficult to implement something in the engine install that would check your CPU and then automatically choose the best executable for your CPU?

I guess if it was easy this would have been done before, but somehow I can't see how this would be difficult as the Windows System has the CPU identification. All that would be needed is to use that data and then point to the correct install. This would help a lot of people. For a lot of people looking up the CPU and then deciding which executable to choose is not trivial and it just seems that this would be a nice thing to have.
I don't see why it is not trivial. Moreover if you like to join a hobby with computer involved, you should have at least a slight clue what hardware you are running and what instructions it have. Moreover people google so much useless things but aren't able to do the same for their hobby?
Also why someone simply running a binary (either from GUI or cmd) calls this 'installation' escapes me.
A software installations is actually a completely different thing.
Even leaving all of this beside you can simply run a few binaries and either they run or don't run at all, if more run then just check the speed.
Doesn't sound like rocket science to me. If we agree that the user should at least know, if he is running windows or linux there are still
only six windows compilations left and one of them is 32-bit and two of the remaining have the descriptive 'modern' attached.

I think that you have to realize that a lot of people downloading SF are doing it just to analyze chess games or use it to analyze games played live on the internet or in a tournament. They are not chess engine hobbiest but want to use the most powerful engine as a tool. It just seems like so much time is spent on the SF code to get a little bit of extra ELO that maybe a little more time spent on giving the end use an easier time to try and figure out which executable is best for his system, would be a worthwhile effort. I consider myself very well versed in computer hardware and for a while I had some of the most powerful chess engine computer builds using Vapor and exotic cooling ... yet I still find it cumbersome to have to choose the highest performing executable. There was a time where I would know every single little detail on the CPU ... but nowadays I am using a computer I built 8 years ago and have not kept up with all the latest instruction sets available. I agree that it is not difficult and can be done quite easily with some google search. I just think that this would be much more cumbersome for many people and when you think that hundreds of thousands or even millions might download this ... a little effort in making the install more streamlined would go a long way.
Anyway I just thought it would be easy to implement and make the software more user friendly. Remember that not everyone using SF is on TC and is a chess engine hobbyist. There are millions of SF users that just enjoy the game of chess. If it is technically difficult to do that, then fine. But if it is easy to add this then why not?

Uploaded cpu.exe which will recommend which stockfish compilation to download.
Example, run the program and it will output something like this.
Thanks ... but it just tells me download Modern ... which is none of the choices. Anyway I did a System check on my windows and I have an i7 3930K CPU which according to google supports SSE 4.2 and AVX instruction set. On the SF 13 download page it shows MBI2 and AVX2 and SSE4.1+POPCNT and SSSE3 and then just a 32 bit and 64 bit executable. Now not to be fussy ... but which of these builds should be considered "Modern" ?? I guess that maybe I can use the SSE4.1 + POPCNT since I have SSE4.2 which must come after SSE 4.1?? Or do I just download the "Maximally compatible but slow" 64 bit executable?? I really don't want to download anything "slow" unless I have no choice!
