I'm having an issue running reportgenerator. The entirety of what I'm working on works on my version of Matlab, but when I send someone a file and they try to run my script it comes up with this error:

Most likely they simply do not have a license for MATLAB Report Generator, which is an optional product that is not included in any bundle.
