You can update with liveupdate but better way is downloading new version completely and reinstalls it.

That depends actually. If you are using a white-label version of the terminal (broker-modified), it MAY mess up smth. I havent tried that, since I dont like using broker-modified versions, but it theory it might mess things up.

Several people are having major problems with Strategy Tester in Build 200. I can't get build 200 to import any historical data, and it also screwed up the historical data already installed. For some pairs, I can't backtest at all now.

Very hard to believe this. For one, I have been testing on 200 just fine. Two, two weeks before the official rls date of 200 (14 Nov) there was a build 199. So for two weeks before 200 people have been testing the new build and there was no problems. I mean, I'm not saying that you are lying or smth. The problem might be with your settings/broker/you(messed smth up). I suggest you report this on the developers forum: http://www.metaquotes.net/forum/ . But again, keep in mind that build 200 have been around for more than 3 weeks now and it seems fine with most of the people.

All the best,
Diam0nd.

I LOVE

Well done to Metaquotes. Even the version I am running under emulation on Linux updated itself
