Using MCRInstaller.exe on the Command Line

Running MCRInstaller.exe

When you want to run MCRInstaller.exe without any options or arguments you can use a GUI to install the MCR. This is the best technique for most applications.

For more powerful installation options, you can use the command line with the options described in the next table.

Note   MCRInstaller.exe runs two installers: InstallShield and Msiexec.exe. For more information about these tools, see the appropriate documentation from their vendors: InstallShield (the Basic MSI project options only) and Msiexec.exe.

Examples: MCRInstaller.exe Command Line

For example, the following command:

MCRInstaller.exe /L1033 /s /v"/qn INSTALLDIR=D:\MCR\current_release"

tells InstallShield to:

• Run silently (/s).

• Use the English language option (L1033).

• Pass arguments to Msiexec.exe (/v).

• Install quietly (/q).

• Install with no GUI (/n).

• Set the INSTALLDIR property to point to D:\MCR\current_release instead of the default, which is matlabroot\MATLAB Compiler Runtime\mcrversion, where matlabroot is the root directory for the MATLAB^® installation and mcrversion is the version number of the MCR.

The following command:

MCRInstaller.exe /v"/L*v \"C:\log.txt\""

causes the installer to create a verbose log of the install process in log.txt in C:.
