MATLAB: Persistent error message at command window prompt…

error

I have just started a contract at Wells Fargo in Charlotte. I have been given access to the MATLAB on the server here, but I keep getting a persistent error message at the command window screen prompt:

"java.io.FileNotFoundException: D:\Program Files\MATLAB\preffile\MATLAB.prf (Access is denied)."

That is the MATLAB preference file. You don't seem to have access to that file. Do you have the access to that file? Can you open a Windows Explorer and navigate to that file?

Are you sure you don't already have the file open in Excel? If so, it won't let you save it while it's already open. I know starting with Windows 7 there are a lot of folders that you cannot save to any longer, such as anything under the Program Files folder, and sometimes others that you wouldn't think should have such a restriction, like C:\Users and C:\ProgramData, though C:\Users\nkumar\Documents would be allowable.
