If you save files in MTEditor in UTF-8 encoding, you can see comparisons via Git Desktop

That's exactly what I do. I save all new files in UTF-8 at once

 
Sergey Likho:

Native Git Desktop recognises mq4/mqh files as binary. Even if I specify diff in the attributes, it is not clear how to see changes in the application. What are some solutions to compare file versions conveniently?

araxis merge, by the way it can be easily written in git as diff viewer.

How do you do that?

I have AkelPad. I open a file - Save as - UTF-8.

After that MetaEditor does not change the encoding itself.

Good morning I've been searching all over the Internet for mt5 assistants customer service but I have yet to find anything helpful I made a real account and I have $6,000 in there that I have been trying to withdraw but it seems impossible if you could point me in the right direction I would really appreciate it. My email is TcChrltn@aol.com  and my name is Terry. Attached are some files that might be helpful. 

 

Thank you for sharing your insight. It always refreshing to see other programmers perspective.

I already do some of this advice. This is one of my routine :

On weekend, I usually clear unnecessary log file and file created in MQL/files directory (example: spread monitor file created during the week) using .bat file with delete command.
After that, I compress the MT4/MT5 folder and proceed to copy the compressed file to 2 of my external drive/usb drive (this option is quicker rather than upload the backup into some online backup service).

You can do it in metaeditore itself. Open file - Save as UTF-8

Thank you! Maybe this option has recently appeared in ME?
