Hi all,
After the most recent MT5 update, the macOS version has stopped working for me.
The terminal freezes immediately on launch and never reaches the login screen. This started right after the update. It was working normally before.
Setup:
MetaTrader 5 for macOS
macOS Sequoia 15.5
Apple Silicon (M4)
Things I have already tried:
Removing and reinstalling MT5
Deleting the full app container ( ~/Library/Containers/net.metaquotes.wine.metatrader5 )
Restarting macOS and installing fresh
Checking macOS permissions
No luck so far. The same freeze happens every time.
At this point it looks like an update related compatibility issue rather than a local configuration problem. Since MT5 on macOS auto updates and cannot be rolled back, I am currently stuck.
Is anyone else seeing this on Sequoia 15.5 or Apple Silicon?
And does anyone know if this build issue has been acknowledged or if a fix is planned?
Thanks in advance.
