MATLAB: How to restore the Support Packages path after doing restoredefaultpath

MATLABsimulink

Why do the support packages disappear after I do "restoredefaultpath"? How do I restore the path of the support packages after doing "restoredefaultpath"?

Best Answer

You should do the following:

>> restoredefaultpath

>> a= matlabshared.supportpkg.getSupportPackageRoot()

>> matlabshared.supportpkg.setSupportPackageRoot(a)

Please refer to the Documentation link below for more information:

You need to rename

C:\Users\Zhengye Bian\Documents\MATLAB\feature.m

to not be named 'feature.m', or move it out of your MATLAB path.

You might also need to remove your preferences directory; https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/prefdir.html or your startup.m

MATLAB: RESTOREDEFAULTPATH doesn’t restore default path (rather restores user’s path)

Further to my comment (see above), the old behaviour can be had by

restoredefaultpath; matlabpath(strrep(matlabpath, userpath, ''));

Arguably the new behaviour of restoredefaultpath is what one would expect - it now returns the default path at start up, but excludes any dynamic or path saves by the user. It now matches the behaviour of the Default button in pathtool. The userpath is just 1 location, that is in the user area of a system and not subordinate to matlabroot.
