Extracting a ZIP safely

How to unpack a product package without mixing files into the wrong folder.

Extract the ZIP to a new empty folder. Do not extract directly into a MetaTrader data folder until you have reviewed the contents.

Confirm the folder contains the expected source file, compiled file, and QUICK_START.txt for that product.

Bundle packages place each product in its own subdirectory. Install each product from its subdirectory using its own guide.

Do not run unknown executables outside MetaTrader. Trading programs are loaded through the terminal, not by double-clicking .ex4/.ex5 files.
