Thread Subject: Small MCRInstaller.exe is needed

I made some analysis tool, and I converted it into stand
alone binary to provide it to the other engineers.

But MCRInstaller.exe that I have to distribute is almost
140MB.

Is there any way to make it smaller like 50MB?
My version is "7.5.0.342 (R2007b)"

Sorry, no, there isn't. It is effectively a compressed version
of all of the inner guts of Matlab, everything needed to
actually run a Matlab program (except the program parser),
including all of the major graphic routines.

Matlab programs no longer compile into C code that calls upon
the Matlab engine at need: Matlab programs now compile into
pre-parsed "threaded" calls into the Matlab inner workings,
very close to the same way that source code that has passed through the
JIT (Just In Time) compiler behaves for "live" Matlab.

Hmmm.

I usually just run the new executable which creates a
_mcr. Then I move the executable, .ctf and _mcr to the
deployment target. I've never run MCRInstaller.

If you also have MATLAB installed, you don't need to install the MCR.
The MCR is meant especially for folks who don't have MATLAB at all.
