How can I revert back to an older version of my Mt4?

 
I am interested in adding an ea to my mt4 platform but with the newer platforms the mql4 files will not automatically transform in to a ex4 file like it use to with the older mt4's. Can anyone help please?

Search for the version you're looking for in Google.

Since the 500+ builds came out they are no longer available for download! Apparently brokers will not allow trading on them. I only want one to be able to transform indicators form a mql4 to a ex4 file.

 

Open the mq4 file in metaeditor and hit compile. It will make an ex4 file and you will see the EA available to use in your MT4 Terminal. This is assuming there are no errors in the mq4 code and it does compile successfully.

Compile it just like the rest of us.

looks to me you're having a decompiled file

and you know why it is impossible to use on a version MT4 build 500+

if not show the code you have trouble with .....

 

Thank you for the responses, I really am beside myself! Here is the code that will not compile-(Do you see anything wrong with it?)

Yes, this is decompiled code. It's not possible to compile it starting from build 500. And you can't use older MT4 version.

Don't use decompiled code.

 

You can not compile decompiled code any more.

Decompiled code is stolen code. Either you are a thief or the receiver of stolen (intellectual) property.

Either way we will not be an accomplice after the fact to theft.

If you post decompiled code again, you will be banned.

Obviously I did not know. I got it from a site that offers shared software! Trying to figure it out but it makes since that the newer nmt4 platforms are weeding out the decompiled codes looks like to protect the rights of the owner. I wouldn't want my software shared! Thanks for bringing light to my mystery! I am fairly computer literate but I was stumped on this one.
