MATLAB: How to get the 7.14.2 MCRInstaller

mcrruntime

Our customer has provided an executable that asks for the MCR Runtime Installer and cannot find mclmcrrt7_14_2.dll. We do not and are not able to have MATLAB on that computer. On a licensed system I installed MATLAB 2010bSP2 , but the MCRInstaller and path are not there. Will a newer MCR work. Can I get the older installer from Mathworks?

Best Answer

In releases as old as that, the license terms for MATLAB Compiler required that the person who created the executable with MATLAB Compiler was responsible for providing MCR to the people authorized to use the executable, and further required that the authors have access controls on downloading MCR, permitting only members of the same organization or individually authorized users to download MCR.
Therefore, your client needs to obtain the MCR from the person who created the executable.
MCRInstaller is provided as part of the MATLAB Compiler product: if you were to install MATLAB Compiler for R2010bSP2 then you would find the appropriate MCRInstaller.
No other version of MCR will work.
