Log on with the same account as before. The engine that you have provided is
displayed in the list in blue. If you only want to see the private engines in the dialog

3.5.18.6 Public Cloud Engines
In order to use the public Cloud Engines you would usually need a supply of Ducats.
Ducats are the currency used on the server Playchess.com. They are used to pay for
services such as private training, and they are also used to pay for the use of Cloud
Engines.
Sometimes you can find users who offer their computer free of charge. These engines
are marked as Free in the Booking F e e column, but there is the chance that another
user will take this engine away from you by bidding ducats to use it.
You can buy ducats in the ChessBase online shop at www.chessbase.com.
In the column Name the available engines are displayed. If an engine is marked with a
green point
in front of the name it can be loaded immediately and can be used for
your own analysis.
If you are offering an engine for public use you can define the conditions for its use in
the Revenue menu.
