When I run the installation, I get an error message saying that an error occurred while the files were being extracted.

This error may occur if the installation files for some or all of your products are corrupt, missing, or for the wrong operating system architecture.
If you are running the installation from the MATLAB DVD and you are receiving this error, the disc may be damaged, or your DVD drive may not be able to read the disc. If this is the case, contact Customer Service here to request a new MATLAB DVD:
If you are installing MATLAB from downloaded files, the file for the product may be corrupt, missing, or for the wrong operating system architecture (Example: .glnx86 is for 32-bit Linux, .glnxa64 is for 64-bit Linux).
Download a new copy of the file in the error message and replace the existing download. Once you have downloaded a new file, simply rerun the installer to install your product.
Or if you want to download the fresh installer then please follow this post: How to download an older MATLAB release

There’s probably something interfering with the extraction and/or download of the files. Disable any antivirus software or anything that may interfere with your network connection, like a VPN or proxy server.
