metatrader.info

in windows xp on ntfs file system there is an option to seem-less compression of files "on the fly" by the file system.

1. open my computer
2. go to C:\Program Files\
3. find [metatrader folder]
4. right click on it and choose properties
5. click on advanced
6. check in check box of compress in order to save space.
7. click OK
8. click OK
9. you will be confirmed about applying compression to all files and subfolders, replay Yes
10. wait until done

may be some time you should do it again. for new files.
because it seems that windows do not make new files compressed automatically.
but those that already marked as compressed they still save space( like common log files).

my metatrader folder was 3G and after that it became 1G and the charts load faster.
