As of R2012a, the MATLAB Compiler Runtime (MCR) can be retrieved from our website from the MATLAB Compiler page:
For releases R2017b and earlier, see below:
The MATLAB Compiler Runtime (MCR) installer must be retrieved from a computer that has MATLAB and MATLAB Compiler installed. The location of the MATLAB Compiler Runtime (MCR) installer depends on the operating system of the computer. You can find the location of the MATLAB Compiler Runtime (MCR) installer by running the below in MATLAB:
Please see below for some example paths:
Windows:
$MATLAB\toolbox\compiler\deploy\win32|64\MCRInstaller.exe
Mac OS X:
$MATLAB/toolbox/compiler/deploy/maci32|64/MCRInstaller.zip
Unix/Linux:
$MATLAB/toolbox/compiler/deploy/glnx86|a64/MCRInstaller.bin
(where $MATLAB is the location of your MATLAB installation directory or installation media)
As of 2018a, the standalone MCRInstaller executable does not ship with the MATLAB Compiler™ product.
When you package a MATLAB function using the Application Compiler or Library Compiler apps and select the option Runtime included in package, you are prompted to download the MATLAB Runtime installer. Once you accept, the MATLAB Runtime installer is downloaded and packaged with the application.
If you do not have internet access, you need to download the MATLAB Runtime installer from a computer that is connected to the Internet. After downloading the MATLAB Runtime installer, you will need to transfer the installer to the computer that is not connected to the Internet.
