solve 'Real', true doesnt work

Dear Matlab experts, recently after i reinstall the MATLAB the function "solve" with the turned on 'Real',true gives me a following error:
>> syms x
>> solve(x^5 == 3125, x, 'Real', true)
??? Error using ==> char
Conversion to char from logical is not possible.
Error in ==> solve>getEqns at 189
vc = char(v);
Error in ==> solve at 67
[eqns,vars] = getEqns(varargin{:});
I have no Idea why,
I would be very grateful for any suggestion.

Which MATLAB version are you using? Did you happen to install the Maple symbolic computing package (Maplesoft) ?
As an experiment, try
solve(x^5 == 3125, x, 'Real', 'true')
Yes, I have installed the Maple package, and now delete it, but it already doesn't work, as well as this
solve(x^5 == 3125, x, 'Real', 'true')

Thank you for your answer! but How to check? and what to do if it's not correctly installed?

I would recommend re-installing the Symbolic Toolbox. You do not need to delete Maple as a whole.
What I suspect happened is that when you installed Maple you told the Maple installer that Yes, you wanted to install the MATLAB to Maple link. That link would have overwritten parts of the Symbolic Toolbox, as the two are not expected to be installed at the same time.

I've reinstalled matlab as a whole, and it still doesnt work, I even restore the system, and it also didn't help...
may be something still stored in my system, and doesnt allow to matlab to work properly
in addition the time of symbolic computations slowed down significantly (((((
Which MATLAB version are you using?
R2011a 7.12.0.635
