MATLAB: Can’t I install the matlab MCR

Question

I want to run an .exe file made by matlab GUI on another computer that doesn't have matlab. I downloaded the matlab MCR from matlab.com. But every time when I try to install the MCR, there always shows a window of installing ‘Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable’. However, when the ‘Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable’ is installed, MCR installing window disappears and I can't install the MCR.

Dose anyone know what is going on?

Would appreciate your help!

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

I found out it. Do not run the downloaded file directly. First unzip the file and go inside and find the MCR installer.
