Answers.Text: Is the problem with installing Winboard itself or with running Stockfish in it? The most recent Winboard you can get at http://hgm.nubati.net/WinBoard-AA.zip, but running Stockfish in it requires the UCI2WB adapter, which should be included already. Alternatively you can also try my other Stockfish variant fork https://github.com/ianfab/Fairy-Stockfish which does not need an adapter, see https://github.com/ianfab/Fairy-Stockfish/wiki/Usage#xboardwinboard, but it does not support atomic.

  There are three chess variant GUIs supporting both atomic and king of the hill that I am aware of:
  
  * [PyChess](https://pychess.github.io/download)
  * [WinBoard/XBoard](http://hgm.nubati.net)
  * [Cutechess](https://github.com/cutechess/cutechess)
  
  The latter is well suited for automated engine matches and human vs. engine games, but less for game analysis. All three should work fine with the multi-variant Stockfish you downloaded.
