What's wrong with the standard FileXXXXX functions?
I need to work outside the terminal folders and I'm trying to do that, I haven't found a more or less compact and working code on the site, I'm picking up the pieces. I have Win7 and everything I found either works on XP or Vista. If you have a link or your own experience I would be grateful. I've been struggling for a long time...
Need to work outside the terminal folders and I'm trying to do it, I haven't found any less compact and working code on the site, I'm picking up the pieces.

Proven scheme:
1.Open a terminal (cmd), type the command mklink /?
2. Read the displayed help.
3.Create inside the experts/files folder a symbolic link to a location where you want to write/read files.
4. use it for a hundred years)
This only works on NTFS, if you have FAT32 disks then fail
example (inside files , a symbolic link-folder is created which leads directly to the root of the c drive):
all have the standard CLOSE script. It closes the first open trade. I thought that if I made it into an Expert Advisor, it would close all trades one by one.
I have looked at the structure - it is no different from Expert Advisor.
moved it to the folder "Expert Advisors" - I thought it would be executed not once but in a loop - but... it doesn't work.
please advise how (internally) the Expert Advisor is different from the script?

do you know the (internal) differences between the Expert Advisor and the script?

#property show_confirmexample (inside files a symbolic link-folder is created which leads directly to the root of the c-drive):
Can you elaborate on this, it's interesting. I just open a command line:mklink /? Next is the help:
MKLINK [[/D] | [/H] | [/J]] Link Assignment
The default is to create a symbolic link to a file.
/H Create a hard link instead of a symbolic link.
/J Creating a connection for a directory.
Link New symbolic link name.
new link.
I need to use /D. It says ""/D" is not an internal or external command, executable or batch file.".
Maybe I'm doing something wrong, I just have the terminal on drive k, I specified it.
I gave an example above, try typing it into the command line and see what happens. Only specify your own path to the MT.
