Upgrading Your VPS

Upgrading your VPS is a simple, automated process — no data loss, IP changes, or reinstalls required. Your data, IP address, credentials, and EA/MQL product licenses will remain unchanged.

Finalize the Upgrade

Automated Upgrade ProcessThe automated upgrader will guide you through the process. Before proceeding, close all running software and save any open files on your VPS. Check the confirmation box to confirm, then click Begin Upgrade. The upgrader will handle the rest — stopping your VPS, applying the new resources, and restarting it. The process takes approximately 5-10 minutes to complete.
For minimal interruption, we recommend performing the upgrade during the weekend while trading markets are closed.
