| - | ====== MATLAB R2018b Installation ====== | + | ====== MATLAB ====== |
| - | ==== Windows ==== | + | |
| - | If you have an existing MATLAB installation prior to R2018b, we recommend you uninstall your current version and reboot your computer prior to running the R2018b installation. | + | |
| - | === Installation for Olin domained computers === | ||
| - | To begin the non-interactive installation, IE users may click on the following link. For any other browser you will need to copy & paste it into the Run box (Windows Key + R): \\ | ||
| - | [[\\fsvs01\Applications\Public\netapps\MATLAB\r2018b\windows\win64\silentSetup.lnk]] | ||
| - | === Installation for off-domain systems === | + | MATLAB installation, starting with version 2019a, has gone cloud based. This means to use the latest version requires a Mathworks account. |
| - | Cross-Registered students will need to specify the Olin domain and authenticate with their Olin network credentials, following the link below: | + | |
| - | \\ | + | |
| - | [[\\fsvs01.olin.edu\Applications\Public\netapps\MATLAB\r2018b\windows\win64\silentSetup.lnk]] | + | |
| - | When prompted for username, please enter "**olin.edu\**//<your username>//" followed by your Olin network password. | + | For any user of previous versions of MATLAB, please uninstall your current version before following any further steps. When uninstalling, select to Uninstall MATLAB preference files. |
| - | == continuing installation == | + | One of the final screens in the uninstall process states "There may be some remaining files in C:\Program Files\MATLAB\<version>. You can manually delete them." You will want to do this, as any loose files remaining can cause issues with pointing to the previous license. |
| + | ---- | ||
| - | Click **Open** in the Windows UAC warning window to continue with the installation. | + | ===== Downloading MATLAB ===== |
| - | There may appear to be a small delay between allowing the install to begin from the UAC window to when the actual MATLAB installer appears on screen where it appears that there is nothing occuring. This is normal behavior while the installer loads, users do not need to launch the installer more than once after allowing the UAC prompt to process. The delay may be longer while installing over a wireless network connection than on a wired network connection. | + | |
| - | At this point you will be able to watch the progress of the installation. There is no interaction necessary on your part for the installation – all entries are preconfigured for the installation. Each screen will display for a moment before continuing onto the next. | + | * To begin with, go to the [[https://www.mathworks.com/products/matlab.html|MATLAB website]] and click on the profile icon in the top right corner. |

| + | {{:matlab8r2020ar.jpg?nolink|}} | ||
| + | * Once the download is complete, run the installer. After extracting and starting the setup, fill in the account information you created prior. | ||
| + | {{:matlab9r2020ar.jpg?nolink|}} | ||
