| Problem | Likely solution | |---------|----------------| | Installer fails to start | Run as Administrator; ensure Windows 7/10 64-bit; disable antivirus. | | License error -9 | License file missing or corrupted. Re-download .lic file from MathWorks and place in licenses folder. | | Not enough disk space | Use a different drive or remove unnecessary Windows files. | | Toolbox not found after install | Run rehash toolboxcache or restart MATLAB; if still missing, run installer again and add missing products. | | Slow performance | Increase RAM; close other applications; disable visual effects. |

  • Test a toolbox function – For example, to test Image Processing Toolbox: | Problem | Likely solution | |---------|----------------| |

    I = imread('cameraman.tif');
imshow(I);

    If the command works without licensing errors, the toolbox is active.
