Broker won't update build

 

I can't get my mt4 to update to the new build.  It says old version and won't update of let me trade.

Is there a way to force it to update?

1. Close MT4 and restart PC.

2. If issue stays - contact your broker CS.

Change broker, switch to mt5.

Thank you for answering, did not know about the broker thing.

I restarted my PC my VPN my MT4 nothing has worked.  I have emailed the broker but nothing yet.


My other broker on same PC did update to new build.  

 
Use no-branded platforms from metaquotes instead of platforms from brokers.

You will receive update sooner and you will not have any surprise (like strange injections into hosts file).

Switching to MT5 is something you will surely need to do in the near future. Start to convert your EA.

Thats an idea.  I can download here.


Been using mt4 for over a decade.  Mt5 is not loved or supported by many and why fix what's not broken.


Time will tell.  

thx for the information.

 

So, the only way to fix it and get new build was to download the set file from the broker.


I backed up both broker accounts first in case it overwrote and deleted everything.  Suprise it did not.    It installed new build and did not set me back to "factory" charts.  Got lucky


thx everyone for the help
