In general, if a broker cannot or will not provide the proper Metatrader version, get the vanilla install package from the Metatrader forum. Please try this on a demo account first so that you are familiar with the procedure before trying this on any live account.
Most VPS's use this method. They install the vanilla Metatrader because they do not know which broker you are using.
I also searched for just a vanilla update for Metatrader but could not find any specific links to just the update.
Good luck,

Rick,
full Metatrader v223 install package
This is the direct link to the same MetaQuotes.net setup.exe file that I mentioned FXDD had sent me. All that was necessary was to click run and redirect it to the file I wanted to overwrite. It updated my mt4 platforms without any problems or losses of current data.
I dont know about any need for a login ID or password. I just tried your link and it worked exactly as I said. This is about as vanilla an updater as I could think of.
