H1 data isn't consistent with M1 data in MT4

M1 Data was imported in my MT4 successfully for 5 years.
After double clicking H1, there are only data from Sep, 2014.
What's the root cause and how to fix? Thanks.

Maybe in the Tools > Options > Chart tab ... the history is too small.

If you modify here, restart the platform once done.

In fact the setting was updated before my first post already.

Importing M1 data does not change any other data in any other timeframe. You will have to import or generate data for the other time frames you want the data on. The period converter script in the scripts folder can be used to convert the M1 data to higher timeframes.

Found it and it looks like it's good to use.
Thank you very much!

Some additional questions:

1. Is there any impact if connecting MT4 to my broker during importing and converting?
2. Is it necessary to empty MT4 "history" folder before importing and converting?
3. What else should pay attention to?
