How to setup Visual Studio 2012 to work with Matlab compiler? (Test checkout of feature 'Compiler' failed.)

I get this message when I try to compile (anything): >> mcc -m logodemo.m Error using mcc Test checkout of feature 'Compiler' failed.

I did all this: mbuild -setup

Welcome to mbuild -setup. This utility will help you set up a default compiler. For a list of supported compilers, see http://www.mathworks.com/support/compilers/R2013b/win64.html

Please choose your compiler for building shared libraries or COM components:

Would you like mbuild to locate installed compilers [y]/n? n

Select a compiler: [1] Microsoft Software Development Kit (SDK) 7.1 [2] Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 [3] Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 [4] Microsoft Visual C++ 2012

[0] None

Compiler: 4

Your machine has a Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 compiler located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0. Do you want to use this compiler [y]/n? y

Please verify your choices:

Compiler: Microsoft Visual C++ 2012 Location: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0

Are these correct [y]/n? y

Hi, Robert! I believe your MATLAB is a 64-bit version and your VS is a 32-bit version. I don't know how to connect 2 different version. But I suggest your to re-install one of the two to keep the bits same. In other words, you should install a 32-bit version MATLAB or install a 64-bit VS~
