Here's a short tutorial for copying config on Metatrader:
1. Try switching to MT4 which has a broker server, for example on a PC. Please click Menu Files > then click Open Data Folder
2. After that, please click Config Folder
3. After entering the Config folder, Copy Files Broker server required
Next step :
- Please open MT4 which previously did not have a broker server
- Do the same as in the tutorial above to enter the Config folder
