title: Which was the latest Matlab version that allowed to install MCR without Administrator rights?
body: <p>I want compile some GUI into a Windows standalone application (<code>*.exe</code>). The main idea is run my applications in different computers WITHOUT the necessity of privileges to run it.</p>
  
  <p>While doing <a href="http://www.mathworks.de/help/toolbox/compiler/br2jauc-48.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">these steps</a>, I noticed that when I want to run <code>vcredist_x86.exe</code> on a different computer administrator privileges are required. I asked in the official forum and they confirmed that is not possible.</p>
  
  <p>There was also other interesting alternative with an older version here:

  <p>Despite the fact that now there is no supported way, <strong>until which Matlab version was it possible run standalone apps without privileges?</strong></p>
  
  <p>My version is 2010b but I can use the most recent version which support the possibility to run MCR without privileges. I have Matlab compiler but not Matlab code generator (to automatic translate into another language).</p>
