Install Products Using Internet Connection
This procedure is the fastest and easiest for installing to a single computer. You must have a
MathWorks Account, a license linked to that account, and an active Internet connection. If you have
an Activation Key, you can use that instead of your linked license. If you do not have an Internet
connection, follow the instructions in “Install Products Using File Installation Key” on page 1-9.
Consider disabling antivirus software and Internet security applications on your computer during
installation. These applications can slow the installation process or cause it to appear unresponsive
(or to hang).
Before you begin, see System Requirements for MATLAB.
Installing on Shared Computers
You must have the correct permissions to install the software. If
you have questions about permissions, ask your system administrator.
Changing the tmp directory for installation
To change the tmp folder for installation, see
MATLAB Answer How can I change the temp directory the MATLAB installer uses?
Linux Users
If you plan to run the installer using the root account, see this MATLAB Answer: Why
can't I install MATLAB with the root account in Linux?
Step 1. Sign in to Your MathWorks Account
Sign in to your MathWorks Account with your user name and password.
If you have Two-Step Verification enabled in your MathWorks Account, you will be prompted to enter
the verification code sent to your primary method when you signed in to your MathWorks Account. If
you do not have Two-Step Verification enabled, you can go directly to the next step.
If you do not have a MathWorks Account, select one of the following procedures determined by your
situation:
