Hello, I've tried all the suggestions to address pathdef issues from others and haven't been successful. When I went from 2012a to 2017a, I get the first warning when I start as: "Warning: Directory permission denied: /Users/douggeorge/Desktop/HFR/Matlabcodes Warning: Executing startup failed in matlabrc. This indicates a potentially serious problem in your MATLAB setup, which should be resolved as soon as possible. Error detected was: MATLAB:recursionLimit Maximum recursion limit of 500 reached."
Then when I try to set the path again to my original setup, I get the attached image when I try to save the new path. I've removed 2012a entirely from my Mac and have restarted. Any guidance or suggestions? Thank you.
