    3. In Location, add the Mule runtimes update site: http://studio.mulesoft.org/r3/studio-runtimes/

  3. Check the box to select Community or Enterprise and click Next.

  4. Select one or more runtimes you want to install. If you only want one version, expand the item and click the version you want. After selecting one or more versions, click Next.
