MATLAB® Compiler Release Notes

Installing a New Version of the MCR on Windows

The MCRInstaller now supports the installation of multiple versions of the MCR on a target machine. This allows applications compiled with different versions of the MCR to execute side-by-side on the same machine.

If multiple versions of the MCR are not desired on the target machine, you can run Add or Remove Programs from the control panel to remove any of the previous versions. This can be done either before or after installation of a more recent version of the MCR, as versions can be installed or removed in any order.

MCR Version 7.0 Restriction

The only caveat to installing a new version of the MCR is that you cannot automatically install version 7.0 in the same directory as a previously installed version of the MCR. This restriction applies only to version 7.0 of the MCRInstaller. If you must install version 7.0 in the same directory as a previous version, you should first run the version 7.0 MCRInstaller and select that directory. After the installation completes, you should manually add the MCR run-time directory <TargetDir>\v70\runtime\win32 to the system path.
