Yes, it is what i did as well, for roughly 2.5 GB download and 8.5 GB 
installed. Now, what i understand is that Community 2019 does not embed 
Windows 8.1 SDK that is currently the version targeted by the Scilab 
solution. I retargeted the solution for windows 10, but i get then many 
errors with include file.h that are not found, although they are 
actually at the printed path. I was not able to find an URL to get this 
SDK and instal it in community.

Thanks
Samuel
