Dear Maintainer,

   * What led up to the situation?
I was trying to load stockfish 19 to xboard
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?
I moved stockfish 19 to a shorter file path
   * What was the outcome of this action?
After that point it worked perfectly
