Hi there!
I'm trying to set the path to the toolbox.
I've tried both ways and get an error (matlab does not 'agree' to change the startup file at all).
For the convetional way, got :
"MATLAB cannot save changes to the path.
The path fle pathdef.m might be read-only....."
and then suggests tosave pathdef.m in another location. tryied that - didn't work.
Do you know any about it?
Thank you!
Noa.
P.S.
I'm using windows vista, Matlab 7.11.0 R2010b
Hi Noa,
What about if you add the line:
addpath(‘<...pathname...>\k-Wave Toolbox’);
to the startup.m file, where <...pathname...> is replaced with the location of the toolbox. If no startup.m file exists, create one, and save it in the MATLAB startup directory.

Hi,
Done that.
I get an error when saving the startup.m file after adding the line.
the error says: "Eror writing startup.m. Check if directory is read-only or has been renamed or deleted".
Thanks,

It sounds like you don't have any kind of write permission on the PC you are working with. If it's a work or institutional computer, I'd try getting in touch with your system administrator.
If you want to use k-Wave for just a single session, you can also run addpath from the command line.
Brad.
Can't figure out whay is that happening. It's my own computer.
hope there will be another way, or else i'll have to run it manualy each session with the addpath.
Thanks,
Noa
That sounds to me like a kind of Windows Vista/7/8 User Account Control behavior.
If you installed Matlab somewhere under C:\Program Files\ you can't modify any file here unless you do so with Matlab (notepad) running under the administration account.
Try a right click on the matlab icon and then "Run as administrator". This will give you full access to windows disk C.

Thanks!!!!!! It solved the problem!
After loading again, I checked in theset path and in the Help if it exist and it is there and the folder is there. However, the hepl product it not able to find functions of this toolbox with the search option.... I wander why.
Anyway, thank you very much!!
