I am new to Zorro and just starting out. And it seems like I am missing something.
I have a zorro s subscription (monthly).

These are the changes I have made so.

ZorroFix.ini

Quote
VCPath = "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\VC\Auxiliary\Build"
HistoryFolder = "E:\zorro-data\History" // folder with the history files
StrategyFolder = "myStrategy" // folder with the strategy files
ZorroKey = "MY_S_KEY" // Zorro subscription token (if any)


Other settings are the same as default.

In my history folder ("E:\zorro-data\History"). I have the following files.

Accounts.csv
Quote

Name,Server,AccountId,User,Pass,Assets,CCY,Real,NFA,Plugin
FXCMDemo,FXCM,0,1234567,password,AssetsFXCM,USD,0,0,FXCM.dll


AssetsFXCM.csv file that comes with zorro installation.

When I open zorro. I do not see the account i just added in the dropdown.

I am probably missing something super obvious here. Could someone tell me what I might be doing wrong.

Zorro will always use Zorro.ini for it's settings. ZorroFix.ini functions as a backup in case Zorro.ini gets overwritten during an update.

Hi @Grant,

Thank you for your reply.

Both my Zorro.ini and ZorroFix.ini files are identical. It still does not solve the issue i have.

Any other reasons you think might cause this issue?

Thank you.

I assume you re-started Zorro after these path changes?
Other than that I have no clue, sorry.

For some reason - the old advice of "Turn it off and on again" worked.

I uninstalled zorro and installed in the same drive where the "History" folder is at.

It is showing the FXCMDemo under the dropdown menu now.
