Could it be that some SettingsGroup property (used by edit() ) by mistake was assigned an inappropriate value?

Let's make sure you're using the settings function included with MATLAB as MATLAB expects. What does this command show?
which -all settings

The settings.m in toolbox/psat does not behave like the settings function included in MATLAB does. Remove toolbox/psat from your MATLAB path and ask the authors of that toolbox to update the toolbox so it does not include this function that conflicts with the settings function in toolbox\matlab\configtools.
