It can get annoying. Is there a master switch to turn all alerts popups off on mt4?
I love forex. One day it will love me back.

Try Tools > Options > Events Tab (Keyboard Shortcut Ctrl + O)

Uncheck Enable or double click event you wish to turn off ie. alert.wav
It never gets easier, you just get better

Yup, I did that, unchecked the alert tab.....but the alert tab keeps popping up up. All the alerts are also unchecked. Very annoying to have the alert window always popping up in your face.

Isn't that some indicator or EA that is doing that?
If yes, turn that off (remove it)

Find the indicator or EA that has the alarm setting on it and either cancel the alarm in the inputs (if there) or delete the offending indicator/EA.

Or you can use the attached (it should alert only once per bar - if it has to alert)

Does anyone know how to STOP receiving (specifically) the "new version" notifications?

WORK AROUND SOLUTION

on any MT4 platform

1. Click on 'Tools' from the top menu of your MT4

2. Click on 'Options' or press CTRL + O from Keyboard

3. After the menu opens GO TO TAB called 'Events'

4. Find out from the list 'Alert' an bell icon and just DOUBLE CLICK on it to DISABLE or ENABLE.

In this way pop up will still shows notifications but will not make any noise.

Thanks

There is likely to be a true/false statement in a custom indicator... look for 'PopUpAlert' in 'Inputs' and set the value to 'false'...

It does not work. None of the above ideas actually. I cannot stop the alerts.
Any other ideas ?

In the main menu, go to "Tools" and select "Options."
In the Options window, navigate to the "Notifications" tab.
Uncheck the option that says "Enable notifications" or a similar option that enables alerts.
Click "OK" to save the changes and close the Options window.

None of these work. I still get the popups on my screen.
