MT4 compatible with Windows 8?

I want to upgrade my PC. Are there any known compatibility issues with mt4 on win 8? Is anyone using mt4 on win 8 who could comment on their experience?

TIA

Windows8 has only been available for 1 day, so at this point anything is speculative based on advance info, not actual experience. My understanding is that all windows applications will run in Windows8, but not in WindowsRT which has the interface formerly known as Metro. The terminology is a bit confusing because Microsoft was prohibited from using the Metro name and haven't come up a new name. The question will be is how easy and convenient will it be. I think as long as people don't use the new interface, MT4 will be no harder to use than before, but that is my guess.

There is no reason for being incompatible on desktop computer. Win8 for stationary comp is Win7+Metro. Thats why all apps should work well in desktop mode.
But if you mean tablets, MT4 will not work at all until MetaQuote develops Win RT (metro) version.

thanks for the replies. I think my question may have been too general. It's logical that mt4 would run on win 8, but I was more curious if anyone had run into issues yet with any indicators running on win 8. There are several reports of this even on win 7.
I'm still running on XP

First, I need to emphasize it is much too early to know. But I expect it will be possible to do everything that was possible before; it might require doing things differently. That is essentially the so called problem with Windows 7. People don't understand the security model of Windows 7; didn't want to change and thus ran into so called deficiencies. I have been using it for over 2 years trouble free, other than a few problems in the first month while learning.

good to know, thanks codemeister

I am running MT4 on Windows8 for many months now. Not a single problem.

I'm runing windwos 8 and severall mt4 platforms from the day when windwo s8.0 was relased on market and there is no isues with mt4 platform .

Of corse you need to run it as administrator right click mouse on mt4 icon and set run as administrator for all users so every time files will be saved in mt4 folder not in virtual store folder .

from yesterday I use windows 8.1 and it's working even faster that 8.0

Don't worry, it works good, I am using win8.1
