Error "executable file is corrupted. Please recompile it."

Hello,
still cant make it run.

I did an export to MT4. It is new version downloaded from metaquotes site, replaced terminal.exe with terminal.exe build 432 (later with 427 both not working). Started MT4 via Launch MT4, got patched. It is not connected to any broker, FXTs are read-only. When backtesting I am getting error " executable file is corrupted. Please recompile it." After recompiling, restarting still the same error. What am I doing wrong ?

Thanks,
jinxbhoy

Hi jinxbhoy,

This sounds like an issue with your EA. Have a look at this thread and see if it resolves your problem:

Hi mkeropian,

The problem is that your EA has been compiled under a different build of MT4 and the current build does not recognise it. You should be able to resolve your issue by either:

1) Recompiling your EA under the Build 432 that you have (you will need the source code to do this) or;
2) Upgrade your MT4 to the build that you know works with your EA.

Regards.

Hi mkperopian,

You can try copying the "terminal.exe" file from a later version MT4 installation into the MT4 Build 432 directory. If this doesn't work, just make a full copy of the latest MT4 directory and use that instead for your back-testing.

Hope this helps.
