We have a program which normally installs from the files included in the installer .exe. The desire is to allow the "Custom" setup to additionally install another package which is available online at:
https://www.mathworks.com/supportfiles/ ... taller.exe
It appears that one uses the "Package Defination->Organization->new feature" to do this but then there does not seem to be any place where the URL to the optional installer is.
As this optional installer is 900 MB, and most installations do not need this, it is not desirable to include it in the main .exe installer .
Also this is a 64 bit only program. Is there a way so that the installer will not allow it if the system is 32 bit?

Re: multiple optional installs
Hi,
In order to achieve what you want, you can add that other package as an URL prerequisite in the "feature-based" folders. You can also set it to be installed only on the 64-bit machines in the "Install Conditions" tab of the prerequisite. For more details please take a look on the "Add Prerequisites" tutorial.
Best regards,
