The encryption used for account credentials and market product activations is dependant on various hardware IDs and OS IDs.
By changing your hard drive to a new SSD, all those encrypted details are lost because the hardware ID is no longer the same.
You will have to re-enter all the account credentials and re-activate all market products (which will cause you to lose an activation count on each).

I have many instances of MT5 configured with demo account number and passwords.Everything was working fine.After I installed the same
image onto a new SSD HDD,all the instances of MT5 have lot the account number and password.Indicators and sets seem to be still present .Same is the case with MT4 instances.
I have a backup taken when everything was working.I mean I can access the old MT5 and MT4 folders.Is there any way to recover the old settings so that MT5 will login automatically like before?
