Hello,

does anybody know how to stop terminal updates of mt4 on a WinServer2012. On Win7, 10 it works when I set UAC to always notify (high), but this is not working for my VPS.

Maybe somebody knows a solution. I appreciate your answers!


Thanks,

Wulfie

Yes, sometimes it’s really irritating to face auto update system on Mt4 trading platform! But I have no objection at all! Actually, Mt4 trading platform is my favorite and I am not interested on others trading platform! In addition, I see stopping auto update feature creates chart freezing and others technical problems!

There should be in the settings these options that allow you to approve manual updates automatically. Have you found anything there?

So if you wish to stop the MT4 updates happening automatically, put this option on the end of your startup options for MT4

/skipupdate

here are the properties from my test MT4 instance.

'C:\Users\test\AppData\Roaming\OANDA - MetaTrader\terminal.exe' /skipupdate

Hope that helps and happy trading!

Delete the update folder
rmdir c:\ProgramData\MetaQuotes\Webinstall /q /s
rmdir C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Roaming\MetaQuotes\Webinstall /q /s
