I have trouble installing the MinGW addon. I followed the instructions in the following link: https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/313286-why-do-i-see-a-java-util-zip-zipexception-error-in-my-installer-log-file-when-i-try-to-install-the
After I added the ZIP files to the target folder I tried to use the addon installer again, and I got past what I got stuck on previously. However, the addon installer is now stuck on 'Registering Support for MinGW-w64 compiler 4.9.2'
Please help me and thanks

Step 1:
Visit the following link and install the latest version of the TDM-GCC Compiler (in my case the latest version available, as of 16/07/2020, was: TDM-GCC 9.2.0 release):
The default installation location will be: C:\TDM-GCC-64
Step 2:
In MATLAB command prompt, type and run:
setenv('MW_MINGW64_LOC','C:\TDM-GCC-64')
Step 3:
In MATLAB command prompt, type and run:
mex -setup
And you are done with the stated compiler.

MATLAB only supports TDM-gcc MinGW 4.9.2 for use in MATLAB for compiling MEX-files. Other versions of MinGW or MinGW 4.9.2 downloaded from other sources would not work.
If you are using MATLAB R2015b or R2016a, then download the MinGW installer from the link below: http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/52848-matlab-support-for-the-mingw-w64-c-c++-compiler-from-tdm-gcc
This installer requires MathWorks account and involves registration and configuration after the installation, which will help MATLAB recognize MinGW.
If you are using MATLAB R2016b, then search for 'MATLAB Support for the MinGW-w64 C/C++ Compiler from TDM-GCC' from the MATLAB Add-ons menu. More information on accessing the Add-ons menu can be found in the following link: https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/matlab_env/get-add-ons.html
You can then install the support package from the Add-on explorer.

Hi I'm using R2015b, looks like the first link (intended for R2015b and R2016a) does not work any more.. The page says the file only works version after R2017?
And there seems huge difficulty to get a mingw-w64 4.9.2.
The mingw-w32 4.9.2 is available but not being used by R2015b..
Any suggestions?

I have trouble with Matlab 2014a to compile, on a Windows 10 laptop (cannot configure mex to generate files, cannot find an appropriate compiler even if I have on my PC Visual Studio 2017, MinGW, ...). How should I process to use mex, i.e. get C files compiled and continue with Matlab Mex files as I did before ? Thanks
