Hash tables are set to 96mb internally from the ini file. To change you will
probably have to copy back original ini file from Zchess to engine folder and set it there.

What you show here is typical of Wb2Uci adaptor. Now run engine in a chess gui. It will work.

The executable was created with an application called 'BoxedAppPacker' which bundled all necessary files in to one executable and runs them from it in a virtual space. So this executable contains the Winboard Zchess.exe +Wb2uci (using George's settings).
This type of executable is notorious for triggering Antiviruses, so if you get a warning (I didn't) just add it as an exception. Let me know how it works for you.
This app doesn't work with all engines though. it's rather hit and miss. Crafty didn't work unfortunately.
Jim.
Thank you Maestro Jim !
Works, but unfortunately Mr.Georges settings aren't on my taste. I want to use Nalimov, the original book, my private hash, no pondering and other own frills !
So, for me, the use of .ini file is mandatory ! And only Mr. Georges is guilty ! He has his toy, me- NO ! And Santa coming soon !

Jim, it will not load for me. It just says engine cannot load. I am not sure why.

There is a free virtualization app here which will also package all the files into a single executable.
I tried it with Zchess + Wb2uci and it worked too. Maybe you can try it and make a uci executable for yourself. It's very easy to use.
Just make sure before creating final exe that option 'Share virtual system to child processes' is ticked.
