VPS Setup
Please note, if you see any screenshots or references to “Microsoft Remote Desktop” in our documentation, they refer to the same application, as some screenshots may still display the old name.
Despite the name and some UI changes, the steps for using the application remain the same.
Experiencing stability issues with MetaTrader, such as crashes or the frustrating endless loading wheels on MacOS, can significantly disrupt your trading activities. To effectively mitigate these problems or to ensure uninterrupted trading 24/7, opting for a Windows VPS presents a reliable solution.
For accessing your VPS, we recommend using Windows App, noted for its reliability and availability at no extra cost.
Below is a detailed, step-by-step guide to help you install Windows App and gain access to your VPS:
- Download the EA onto your Mac.
- Copy the EA with "CMD + C".
- Activate the MRD window on your Mac.
- Paste the EA into your VPS by using "CMD + V".
This method also applies to copying your License ID on your Mac and pasting it directly into the EA within your VPS.
