The installer gets to 97% and then says insert DVD 2 to continue but am not installing from a DVD, am running a setup.exe file provided by my university.

Matlab won't finish installing as requires "DVD 2" but am not installing from a disk and there are no files available to run in the DVD 2 file extracted from the compressed Matlab folder.

After downloading iso formats of both cd. cd1(around 7 GB) and cd2(arounf 2.5 GB), do the following steps: 1). Unmount CD1 and install that.

2). then it would ask you to eject cd1 and insert CD2 at this point you have to open My Computer and from there you have to eject CD1 by right clicking on it.(but rememeber the drive name)

3). Now unmount CD2(but be careful because the drive name for CD2 must match the drive name of CD1).

4). Now press OK on the pop up which was asking for inserting CD2.

Done. Now it should be installed.

That worked for me and i hope that would work for everyone.

Make sure you eject dvd1 before proceeding.

Download Virtual Clone Drive.Click on the top arrow icon on the right bottom side of your Desktop screen. Right click the Virtual Clone Drive Icon. Find the drive where dvd1 file was kept in (mine was H:). Click Mount and find the dvd2 file. dvd2 file is now mounted in the same drive as dvd1 (H:). Now go back to the MATLAB installer and click ok to overwrite the error. This should work and I hope it helps.

[Srikanth Divi]

Thank you! This has helped me a lot. Or I should have to reinstall and wait one hour again for complete installation.

[Mahak Parwana]

[Diarmaid Cualain]

if you are installing them from a directory (i.e an extracted ISO), you can rename the DVD1 directory to "DVD1_bak" and then rename the "DVD2" directory to "DVD1", then go back to the GUI where it is asking you to insert DVD2 and click on "OK". The installation should continue then.

Answer 6

[rui kang]

When installing matlab2018a to 59%

Request to pop up dvd1 and insert dvd2 to continue

Since my two files R2018a_glnxa64_dvd1 and R2018a_glnxa64_dvd2 are not merged together

I canceled the installation

Then merge the two files together

Always prompt when installing again

“Unable to locate required installation files

Using a File Installation Key requires you run the installer from a MATLAB

DVD or from a directory which contains files previously downloaded via the

installer

To obtain the missing files, click Back on the previous screen and select

Log in with a MathWorks Account or contact your MATLAB license

administrator”

Can't fit it anymore
