MATLAB: Is the matlab runtime compatible with files compiled with an older version of the compiler

MATLAB Compiler

Dear support,
Is it possible to run a compilation that was compiled with an older MATLAB compiler version (e.g. R2018b or R2016b) with the current Matlab runtime version 2019b?
Kind regards,
Manuel

No. Compiled executables need the runtime for the exact version they were compiled with. For example r2018b Update 2 compiled is not compatible with the runtime for R2018b Update 3: must be an exact match.
