In windows explorer you can change the extension.
Both files are xml - they have the same content. The issue is that some browsers when you save the examples from our site tell you to save it as xml. This can be avoided using right click - save as... or by going to example 0 and downloading all examples as a zip file

While waiting for your response I attempted to add several TA to my existing EA. The TA are identical except that there are 3 diffirent periods H1 H4 and D1. I then setup the EA in the shortest period H1 (as instructed). I found howevr that the EA began trading on H1 even though H4 and D1 criteria had not been met. :(

If anyone can assist me in obtaining the sample "multi time frame" EA" in conversion to mol files I would so much appreciate your help.

I think you are having issues with your browser or the way you do the download. Just got the zip and worked fine for me.

For you multi timeframe ea, please post it in a new thread.

Downloaded firefox and chrome. Both browsers appear to correctly download the samples in mol format. However Molanis still will not open the mol file. So at this point Im stumped. is it possible that my version of molanis is too old?

Check in the last menu, there is an option to see if there are new versions. It should tell you if you are using the last version.
