Will this forced update still render current working indicator code and strats useless?

As I`m still on version 2110 because the last time I tried to upgrade to a then new SC version destroyed a lot of my indicators and strat code base.

Indicators and strats completely stop working and lots of compiler errors when trying to use the previous working code base.

Those errors must be of the same nature, the only things that have changed have been time structures and persistent vars ....

No unless they were compiled with a Sierra Chart version before the changes described here:

There were other issues before this version that made better sense to stay with 32 bit 2110 version that worked and didn't cause any issues.
Forced to upgrade with no reason or explanation provided.

As the old adagees goes "If its not broken, then don't fix it.",
"If you find yourself in a hole,you might want to stop digging"

Hi SC,

Is this Forced Update in place yet?

As I have logged in under v2092 today with no issues.

Or have you delayed the date that users of SC via a broker provided SC must update to the latest version?

No we have not yet required it but will in about two weeks. We had a technical problem involving file compression, which was resolved though, and therefore delayed the required update.

In regards to post #4 use a direct account to avoid the forced update:
