Starting in MATLAB R2016b, support packages are now installed through the Support Software Installer (SSI), which resides in Add-Ons Explorer.

To install a support package in these versions, follow these steps:

1. Launch MATLAB R2016b or later
2. Select the Add-Ons dropdown menu (found on the Home tab of MATLAB) and choose "Get Add-Ons"
3. In the top right hand corner of Add-Ons Explorer, if you are not already logged in, choose the Login option and input your Mathworks account credentials
4. Once logged in, use the "Search for add-ons" search bar to find your desired support package
5. Once your support package appears in search results, select it
6. On the support package information page, choose the "Install" drop-down button, then choose the 'Install' option
7. Review the license agreement, then choose "I Accept"
8. On the Third-Party Software screen, choose Next
9. The following screen will show a progress status for the installation of the support package. 
10. Once installed, you will either be prompted to setup your support package or close out of the support package installer

Once installed, the "Install" button previously found on the chosen support package page in Add-On's Explorer will now change to a "Manage" button.
