Updating MetaTrader 5 (MT5) to the latest version is straightforward. Here’s how you can do it:
Automatic Updates:
MT5 has a built-in system for automatic updates. When you connect to a trade server, the platform checks for updates. If a new version is available, it will be downloaded automatically in the background.
Once the update is downloaded, you will see a prompt to restart the platform. Click “Restart” to complete the update.
Manual Updates:
If you prefer to update manually, you can download the latest version from the official MetaTrader 5 website.
Run the installer and follow the prompts to install the update. After installation, restart MT5 to apply the changes.
Run as Administrator:
Sometimes, running MT5 as an administrator can help with the update process. Right-click on the MT5 icon on your desktop and select “Run as administrator.” The platform will check for updates and install them if available.
