Dear all,
last night I had some problems with some of my functions, added them to the path, removed others and now Matlab is not working properly anymore.
I was trying to reset all the paths to default by the GUI and by
restoredefaultpath; matlabpath(strrep(matlabpath, userpath, ''))
But I receive the following error messages
Error using fullfile (line 103)
All inputs must be strings, character vectors, or cell arrays of character vectors.
Error in rmimap.StorageMapper/storageMapFile
Error in rmimap.StorageMapper
Error in rmimap.StorageMapper.getInstance
Error in rmiml.hasReqDataFile
Error in rmiml.visibleInToolstrip
I already tried to reinstall everything, but it did not change. I still get a bunch of error messages after starting Matlab (see attachment).
Thank you so much already,
Katharina

Hi Katharina,
Perform the following steps to troubleshoot your issue:
edit pathdef.m;
restoredefaultpath; % restore the MATLAB search path to the factory installed state
rehash toolboxcache; % update the cache and the list of known files for all folders on the search path
savepath; % save the updated path in the pathdef.m file
Additionally, you can refer to steps listed here.
