Matlab giving me errors mentioning Java and not running scripts

Whenever I open Matlab this error pops up
Exception in thread "ContributedToolsLoader": java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no nativei18n in java.library.path

I am using R2018b and recently made an update (R2018b update 8) after which this started happening, I am not able to open or run scripts. Whenever I try, this error pops up. I tried installing the latest Java JDK and adding the same to the PATH variable, but its still the same.

You can try to troubleshoot this with the following steps:
  1. On your system go to "security and privacy"
  2. under "privacy" select "full disk access"
  3. assign that privilege to MATLAB.
