Locate MT4 download link and start downloading:

Open MT4 installation file:

Verify that Publisher is MetaQuotes Software Corp. After
that – click Run:

Check the box to agree on MT4 license agreement and click
Settings:

mt4 client terminal

On this step, you can change or leave Installation folder path and Program
group (folder for shortcuts inside the Start menu).

If you will want to install 2nd (or more) instances of MT4 platform, then you will have to choose
different Installation folder path to something different.

For example, if your first MT4 platform was installed inside “C:\Program Files (x86)\MetaTrader 4”
then you could choose “C:\Program Files (x86)\MetaTrader 4 02” (note 02 at the end) as your
Installation folder for the second MT4.
