How do I set the default/initial working folder for MATLAB?

 采纳的回答

You can set the initial working folder in MATLAB through the following Preference settings:
1. Open the Preferences window
2. Navigate to the General options
3. Select the option to specify a path to a folder under the Initial working folder options, and enter the desired directory
4. Press Apply and/or OK to save your changes
5. Restart MATLAB to verify the new location is set as expected.
Additional information can be found in the MATLAB documentation:

Hi Ben,
The startup file should be kept at a writable location and not inside the installation directory. There are many directories in the path of MATLAB. One such folder is <user directory>\Documents\MATLAB
Have the startup file in that location, and then inside the startup.m, you can force MATLAB to start in a desired directory as the article above says.
If you continue seeing the issue, I would recommend contacting Technical support using one of the methods mentioned here: https://www.mathworks.com/support/contact_us.html
Thanks Sandip
