Hi dear chess friends, i tested the syzygy tablebases to ensure if it works.
I found this example on google:

Ok so i setup this position in Fritz GUI, fired the engine to look for a mate.
If i have the nalimov active, engine sees the mate in #96 moves automatically without having to think.
But then i changed the path name of nalimov tablebases (as i do not have them) and configured the engine to work with SYZYGY ONLY.
When i fired the engine (in same position) to look for the mate then engine does not see the mate anymore. Instead, engine says is a draw 0.00 !
Please do you the same as me and you will see that syzygy doenst find the mate!
