Connect to the MetaQuots-Demo broker and restart terminal.

Please do you have any idea how I could register my Yahoo mail on my MT4 terminal (Tools-option-email) to be able to receive alerts to my mail inbox.

The correct SMTP information required there is what I want.

Thanks.

I cannot attach any expert or indicator with Build 988. How to fix the problem?

This is strange issue ... I am on build 988 with Windows 8.1 and not a problem at all.


Can you attach standard MT4 indicators? For example: Navigator - Indicators - Trend - Envelops

Some indicator in the folders: Trend Oscillators,  Volumes and Bill Williams work fine, but the others do not work.  There is no error shown in Journal. 

 
Did you update from which build to 988?
Because as I know - some indicators and EAs will not work with build 600++ in case they were developed for old builds ...
Which build did you have before updating?

You can try to restart computer (and restart Metatrader) so it works sometimes (because some indicators may be compiled during the restarting and the problem may be fixed by itself).
 
because you know ... I did not think about builds (I know my build just because I saw your post ...). I know one thing only to check: my indicators were developed for old build and they need to be improved for builds 600+ (and for build 988), or they do not need to be improved ... just all my thinking about new builds.
