When I click on the 'Open' icon in the editor, the browsing window that pops up opens the directory of the currently (active), already opened file in the editor. I would like it to always open in the 'current working directory'. Is there a setting to change this?

before open matlab do this: first copy your desired directory then right click on matlab icon, go to "properties" and paste your directory in "start in" and click "ok" Good luck

Thanks, I did not know about that option. However, my problem is that during one Matlab session, I work in different directories, so my current working directory (pwd) changes as I move around. After changing my pwd, I would typically like to open a file that lies in that directory... but the browser opens in the directory of the currently active 'opened' file in the editor. I can then either 1) browse to the pwd, or 2) create a 'New' file in the editor and then click on ' Open' icon, which will then open in the pwd. But there must be a setting so that the browser will always open in the pwd???

another way to do this, writing your desired directory with cd code in the command window, for exmaple my directory is C:\peace\one , you should write code as following:
cd C:\peace\one
you should notice that this directory does exist otherwise it gives you an error
