I am running Matlab installation in restricted institutional environment under network licence. At the start of Matlab 2024a, update 3 INSTALLMATHWORKSSERVICEHOST.EXE tries to run.

No web features are allowed in this environment, I would like to avoid/disable installing this process as it triggers security control.

How to disable such installation on the run? How to prepare such installation to avoid this?

Any installation of service by user is against the security policy, so this has to be resolved in single installation. Such thing that the installed program opens hidden zip and tries to install anything is suspicions and not secure.

Either it should have option not not install when calling Matlab or it should be prepared when Matlab network installation is created.

My actual workaround is to get rid of the file \R2024a\sys\mwds\win64\mci.zip from the installation.

Hello Frantisek,

You can refer to the following MATLAB Answer, particularly the steps in point 1, "End all MATLAB-related processes" and the steps in point 2, "Uninstall the MathWorks Service Host" to uninstall the MathWorks Service Host:

I can not do this, this installation is triggered for any network licence user who tries to start Matlab.

This is not institutional solution that I am looking for. There should be option to disable such installation. User is not allowed to install any process, this is even worse as it installs into his profile.
