Hi Sivasankararao,
There is not much information that I can get from just the error message itself.
Can you attach the code file and Image files as well, so I can find out why the above error is appearing.

Hi @Sivasankararao,
It appears as the PNG files you worked with in MATLAB R2011b contain metadata chunks such as tEXt which contain textual information. However, it appears that the updated library for reading images in MATLAB R2021a imposes stricter contraints on tEXt chunk.
There is no direct way to do this in MATLAb. Hence removing tEXt metadata from the images can be done using third party tools like: 'ImageMagick' and 'ExifTool'.
After removing the tEXt metadata, the images can be read through the 'imread' function.
'imread': https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/imread.html
Thanks.
