MATLAB: Do I get an error about a missing “thirdpart​ytools_win​64.xml” file when I try to build the model for TI C2000

Embedded Coder

I am trying to build my model to run on hardware that is supported by a MathWorks Hardware Support Package, for example, for TI C2000 platform.
I have installed the Hardware Support Package using Add-On Explorer, but when I try to build my model, I encounter the following build error:
File
C:\ProgramData\MATLAB\SupportPackages\RXXXXx\toolbox\target\supportpackages
\tic2000\registry\thirdpartytools\thirdpartytools_win64.xml not found.

This error message indicates that you have not completed the hardware setup process for your Hardware Support Package, in this case, the "Embedded Coder Support Package for Texas Instruments C2000 Processors". The XML file is generated during this setup process after verifying that all required third-party tools have been installed.
You can start the hardware setup by clicking Add-On Manager > Manage Add-Ons on the MATLAB Home tab. Start the hardware setup process by clicking the Gear icon (see screenshot below).
