My problem: Protecting Mt4 Account against unauthorized Login!

Hello,

I'm trading on the Mt4 and I would like to protect my account against unauthorized login by having to tip in my password everytime I log in. My Problem is that I can not delete the Login Data, so that when opening the platform the next time, nobody has access. Obviously I tried to unclick the button for "Save Login Data" and also tried deleting my account in the Navigator, but everytime login again, my login-data is already in the login-window mask (although there is no hook in the button for save login anymore). I already asked my broker about it, but they were not of much help. Maybe someone was already faced with that kind of problem or has a great idea about it. Would be great if someone could help me with that!

Best regards, DSchaumann

Well after all I found it out myself, but I'd like to share it with you in case you got the same problem. Somehow Metatrader still saves the password on your harddrive although you unclick the button for saving the login-data. So what you have to do is go in the Metatrader-folder, then in "config", there you should find a configuration file named "accounts". So thats where your password-information is still saved on your harddrive, although you unclicked the login saving button. When you delete that file named "accounts" then your password won't be in the login window when opening the metatrader again.

Ignored
What do you mean by "login to a trade explorer account"?
Do you mean set one up or change the options?
