Hi Collin,
There could be couple of possible reasons for this issue:
1) You may be able to resolve this issue simply by re-downloading the installer. However, security software is frequently a cause of this error.
2) If you have security software running on your machine, please disable your security software or make an exception for files coming from the MathWorks website. If you are not sure how to do this, your IT department will be able to assist you.
3) If you are running the installer from a remote network location such as a mapped network drive, you may need to first copy the installer to your local system before launching it.
If none of the above steps resolve the issue, it would be a good idea to contact MathWorks Technical Support.
Thanks, Tushar
