I am running Windows Vista Home Edition Premium. I have the same problem and it is driving me crazy. I know the files are there, but are not 'visible' to both the user and other programs. I have played with Permissions and every other access related items in Windows, but can not solve this problem.* My current thinking is that it may be related to the 'Indexing' feature in Windows. Maybe files that are 'indexed' are visible to everyone and all others are not.
*
I'll continue to search for a solution and if one is found, I'll post it here.

That's interesting.* I have a Dell XPS with Vista, and indicators & EAs work just fine on mine (at least I think they are working "correctly", they are working).* The only thing I can't do is see some of the MT4 files in explorer, and yes I have turned off the User Account Control, and they still don't show up.

I was over at mike's last night talking trading when he ask me put his system on his wife computer.* We copied some indicators and move then to the wife computer with vista on it. Down load a new MT4 platform from the broker and put the indicators in to the expert/indicators file.
Started up the MT4 platform and the indicators were there in the Navigator but when I tried to drag the indicator on to the chart it did not work. So I tried compile the indicators and made no difference. Next I copied the whole platform from his XP computer on to my USB stick and move it to the Vista computer under the program files. Open the platform that we just moved with all of the indicator all ready in the platform and every thing worked. The only thing is when he wants put a new indicator or am expert on to the Vista computer it will not work.

When you have SP2 SP3 on XP youhave to ake sure file protection is deactived.
Because any file that is copied in the system folder will be removed or disabled by Windows
as it thinks it is a virus or so.
There is a way that you can register he files so they will not be harmed or disabled by Windows
But that you have to lookup in the MDSN techzone of Microsoft.
Even whe the version of a fle chances windows will replace it again with the prevoios version.
Because all system files are stored in CAB files. Every now and then XP verifies if all files are still
exactly the same. If on has a different version number or file size it will replace the file with the one from the CAB
files.
This is really complex and since you are using an installer program you have to build in that procedure in to register
thes changed version if you copy them in the folder.
*
Because it is possible you install the program it works one hour and XP checked he files and it will not work anymore.
In SP! that did not excisted then it only excists since SP2 SP3.
*
Put this link in your browser, you see what I* mean and it is complex to solve.

ok, i think i need to go back and produce winxp version,
the issue is that my ea uses dll (c++ code) mainly for reading properties file and creating sessions and global variables.
this dll is called expertsample. dll you will find it in the experts\libraries folder, and it has 2 dependants, msvcr71.dll and msvcp71.dll these two files are copied into windows\system folder (only if you dont have them).
i dont have a quick remedy except to say try copying these two dlls (msvcr71.dll and msvcp71.dll) into your experts\libraries folder and give it a try..

Tested very well in backtest, i had to revise my hedging strategy it was emptying demo accounts in a matter of hours.
I can tell you this, this ea has potential as long as you have a reasonable amount and trade with the very lowest/minimum lot size.
attach it to a 5 min chart. dont use more than 4 pairs,
the best way is to identify a moving pair then run the ea against it, when the pair slows down find another one continue to identify fast moving pairs and rotate, keeping a maximum of 3 pairs.
minimum 1 (recommended) .

Ok,
Since all the base code is already there here is the new ea which should be tested as well.
Its FXI-Beta
What is FXI-Beta?
FXI-Beta is a scalping tool, yes it simply scalp the market and it has the decence of stop trading if the market is down.
In order for fxi-beta to be successful, it simply requires a market that will move at least 35 pips in whatever direction, if it is a ranging market moving up and down at least 35pips then this ea will harvest a lot of pips. If you know any tools that can tell the volatility of the market i will be interested.
How to install?
Simply download this fie and unzip it.
rename the .fxi file to .exe and install.
open chart (5 minute charts) and use the template fxi-beta.
wait for your account to grow, this is a demo ea only.
keep your takeprofit pips very low.
post your results, and any comments/suggestion s let chris or me know.
