If you had used this you would have found (among 100+) Where to download MT4? - General - MQL5 programming forum 2017.04.31

It has been years since you could download MT4 from Metaquotes. You can only get it from a broker's website.

This build 1260 has serious bug when sending email, it just happened without any signs on last  Thursday.

I checked on mt4 settings, tried mail test on settings, it returns nothing,nothing generate on logs.

I reboot mt4,and it works fine now.

That's a huge bug because I was running previous version of mt4 perfectly for the last two years.

 
Hao Liu: That's a huge bug
IIRC, the maximum limit on emails, is just like SendNotification, "no more than 2 calls per second and not more than 10 calls per minute." Add a Sleep(6) after the SendMail and wrap a mutex around both.
 

Since this update, all the brokers MT4 (and MT5) have stopped working. Up to then, MT4 worked perfectly. I use a ARM version of windows 10 in a Huawei Matebook E. The program connects and then all the charts appear as "Waiting to update" and the number down in the right with the data doesn't grow. Now I have to ask all the time my wife her laptop. I want my MT4 before update back...

 
It's been a long time since someone reported "Waiting for update."
  1. According to IBFX, open market watch (control-m) drag the symbol to the chart. Init() probably would fire.

  3. Close the terminal and delete <data folder>\..\config\terminal.ini You'll loose the placement of any open charts.

Otherwise, backup your data, uninstall the terminal, delete the data directory, reinstall.

Beta version of the MetaTrader 5 build 2430 platform: Subscription service, interface improvements and convenient features in MetaEditor

To the users who think that developers should upgrade MetaTrader 4. And if developers are not doing it so the developers are guilty.

No, the developers should not and are not guilty. The project has long been closed.

It’s your own fault that you think otherwise and stay on MetaTrader 4.
