[FieldTrip] FieldTrip Affecting Matlab path/startup.m

[Ricardo Javier Alejandro Benavides]

Hi Aswin,

I faced similar problems with adding paths. I solved it by first, changing my user privileges to administrator, then I was able to write on the pathdef file permanently and not add all the paths again every time I started Matlab, nor save it in a different location as your screenshot asks. Also, when adding folders with subfolders, the paths were not being really added, I added each subfolder separately. I have not had problems since then. I hope this helps.

Best wishes,
Ricardo.

Subject: [FieldTrip] FieldTrip Affecting Matlab path/startup.m

Hello,

Just downloaded the fieldtrip toolbox (via GitHub) and since then, have been unable to update my paths. I thought this was because it had set the startup.m to within the field trip folder (path/GitHub/fieldtrip/external/dmlt/external/gpstuff/startup.m) so I moved the startup.m file elsewhere but keep getting the error attached. Any advice?

Any thoughts on why this might be happening and how to fix would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Aswin
