Unless you selected a specific folder to save the files to, they will be in the default location. The download agent selects the following directories by default:
WINDOWS:
$TEMP\mathworks_downloads
To find $TEMP, go to your Start Menu and go to Run (or Start Search in Vista or Windows 7). Type:
%temp%
and press enter. This will open a Windows Explorer window in your $TEMP directory.
where {username} is the login name of the user who is downloading, and {release} indicates the version of MATLAB (for example, R2008b)
If you use the manual download process, your web browser will either prompt for the location to download for each file, or use pre-defined web browser settings.
As of R2020a, the silent installer does not have an option to install the License Manager silently. In order to install the License Manager on a machine that requires a silent installation, you may manually install the License Manager with the License Manager binaries.
For information on manually installing the License Manager, please refer to the following article:
