How to download and install Leela Chess Zero in Windows (update)

Here, you'll discover the most recent method that correctly installs Leela Chess Zero on your PC. The first thing you require is a chess GUI. I prefer Tarrasch or Arena. Both of them are free. Link to download the GUI Tarrasch - https://triplehappy.com/downloads/set... Arena - http://www.playwitharena.de/downloads... Once you finish downloading and installing a chess GUI, the following step is to navigate to the Leela Chess Zero website. The address of the website is lczero.org. Once you are on the website, click on the download link. Based on your computer specs, select the most efficient version for your PC. Download the CUDA (Compute Unified Device Architecture) version if you have the latest Nvidia graphics card. For GPUs manufactured between the years 2014 and 2018, download the CUDNN variant. For non-Nvidia GPUs (only for the latest version of Windows 10), download the DirectX 12 version. I have a computer without a GPU but with a modern CPU. Therefore, I'll download the DNNL BLAS version. If you have macOS or Android, you can check the other links. The downloaded file is an archive. You have to extract the contents of this file. I'm using WinRAR. You can utilize the software of your choice. After extraction of the contents of the file, open the Chess GUI of your choice. First, let's learn how to install Leela Chess Zero in Tarrasch because it's straightforward. Next, you'll learn how to install it in Arena Chess GUI. Now, open Tarrasch chess. In the menu bar, click on options. Then click on the engine option. Click on browse and navigate to the specific location where you extracted the Leela Chess Zero archive. Open the LC0 folder, select LC0.exe, and click on open. Click on OK to save your engine settings. Right away, you can play against Leela Chess Zero. Let's check how we can install this in Arena chess. Open Arena, click on engines and then click on install new engine. Navigate to the location where you extracted the Leela Chess Zero archive. Open the lc0 folder, select lc0.exe, and click on open. Now, select the type of engine. It is a UCI engine, so choose UCI and click on OK. We can start the engine by clicking on yes. Now let's see how to change the default network file. The default network file is in the lc0 folder. 703810.pb.gz is the default network file. '.gz' is the file extension of GNU Zip software. Now we have to download another network file that we want to use. To do that, we have to visit lczero.org/play/networks/bestnets. Over here, you will find a list of recommended networks that you can use based on your PC hardware. Let's select something from lc0.org run 2 networks. Click on the network link to download the file. If you are using chrome, you might encounter difficulties downloading the network file like me. All you have to do is right-click on the network link and click on "Save link as." The file name can be anything of your choice. Make sure you add .pb .gz after the file name. Click save, click the down arrow, and select keep. Alternatively, you can use Opera or Firefox to download the network file. The download starts by clicking the network link. Complete the download, copy the network file, and place it in the same directory with the lc0 application. By default, lc0 uses the most recent network file automatically. To check which network file lc0 uses, navigate to the lc0 directory, open the command line, and run lc0.exe. Then type, 'go nodes 50' without single quotes and press enter. Read the first line of the output to know which network file lc0 uses. On my command window, you can see that lc0 used the most recent shonu.pb.gz network file.
