To play games, you a need dump of cartridge ROM (called "ROM") of that game. I presume 2.1.5 means FCEUX 2.1.5. The usual file extension of NES ROMs is .nes. Don't ask where to get ROMs.

Games aren't included with the emulators we link to from this site. You will have to download the ones you want yourself.

What you probably got earlier was a collection of ROMs with an included emulator, that someone other than the FCEU developers had put together. Distributing that kind of thing is generally illegal; you aren't supposed to have a ROM unless you also have the physical cartridge from the game. Thus why the official version of FCEU/FCEUX doesn't ship with ROMs and why we can't tell you how to get them.
