How to Install TradingView on Your QuantVPS (Windows Server 2022)

This guide walks you through installing the TradingView desktop app on your QuantVPS running Windows Server 2022. You will download the TradingView installer and its Visual C++ dependency, then install both packages using PowerShell.

Step 1: Download the TradingView Installer

Visit the official TradingView desktop download page:

• Click to download the TradingView.msix installation file: https://www.tradingview.com/desktop/

Step 2: Download Microsoft.VCLibs Dependency

TradingView requires a Visual C++ runtime package to run.

• Download the required file from Microsoft's official link:

  https://aka.ms/Microsoft.VCLibs.x64.14.00.Desktop.appx

Step 3: Locate the Downloaded Files

Both files, TradingView.msix and Microsoft.VCLibs.x64.14.00.Desktop.appx, should now be located in the default downloads folder:

C:\Users\Administrator\Downloads

Step 4: Open PowerShell in Administrator Mode

To install these packages manually:

1. Right-click on the Start button.

2. Select Windows Terminal (Admin) or PowerShell (Admin) to open a command window with administrator privileges.

   

Step 5: Install the Microsoft.VCLibs Dependency

In the PowerShell window, paste the following command to install the VCLibs package:

Add-AppxPackage -Path C:\Users\Administrator\Downloads\Microsoft.VCLibs.x64.14.00.Desktop.appx

Press Enter and wait for the installation to complete.

Step 6: Install the TradingView Application

Now install the TradingView desktop app by entering the following command:

Add-AppxPackage -Path C:\Users\Administrator\Downloads\TradingView.msix

Press Enter and allow the installation to finish.

If Add-AppxPackage fails: this is most often caused by a missing dependency. Make sure you ran PowerShell as Administrator (Step 4) and that the Microsoft.VCLibs package from Step 5 installed successfully before trying to install TradingView again.

Step 7: Verify the Installation

Once both packages are installed:

• Click the Start menu.
• Look for TradingView in your application list.
• Launch the app to confirm it opens correctly.
