You can install and run multiple MetaTrader4 (MT4) / MetaTrader5 (MT5) apps on a single PC. If you wish to do so, make sure to change the installation folder name so it doesn't overlap with the existing MT4/MT5 folder name.
Here we'll look at the steps required to install multiple MT4/MT5 apps on a single PC.
Switch between MT4/MT5 tabs to check the steps for each.
Double-click the downloaded MT4 file to launch the MT4 installer.

When installing multiple MT4 apps, change the shortcut name of the existing app from "MetaTrader4" to something else. This will let you create new shortcuts when you install additional programs. When changing the name of the shortcut, you may get the "File Access Denied" message. Click "Continue" to save the changes made.
The MT4 setup window will appear. Click "Settings".
In the installation folder, specify a folder name different from that of the installed MT4. If it is the same name, you can't install multiple MT4s as the existing folder will be overwritten instead.
You can specify the installation directory for MT4 in the explorer by clicking "Browse".
In the program group, specify a program name different from that of the installed MT4. Click "Next" to start the installation.
Once the installation is complete, MT4 will be launched.
Double-click the downloaded MT5 file to launch the MT5 installer.

The MT5 setup window will appear. Click "Settings".
