I want to install Matlab on Putty, but when I run sudo ./install, it doesn't work. Is there any way to solve it?

I speculate that maybe the install file is on a file system that is mounted with noexec .

You could experiment with

sudo sh -c ./install

When running sudo ./install nothing shows up. Seems to be running over ssh so it can't be displayed

You are not asking for X Windows port forwarding; so if you are expecting a GUI to show up, it is not going to do that. This assumes you have an X server on your system to do the displaying . https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/12755/how-to-forward-x-over-ssh-to-run-graphics-applications-remotely

You cannot ssh into a Windows system and have it send the graphics to the system you are ssh'ing from.

You also did not specify the inputfile option, so you did not ask for non-interactive installation. https://www.mathworks.com/help/install/ug/install-noninteractively-silent-installation.html
