  • MATLAB startup file: when started, MATLAB will run a script if it finds a file called "startup.m". This is useful for automatically starting SPM, including various versions. In ~2012 and earlier versions, this script was located in C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2012a\toolbox\local. However, in later versions, this file defaults to users' local folders (in Documents), which is a problem if more than on person uses the computer. To have MATLAB run the same script for all users (recommended):
    • With Windows Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2012a\toolbox\local (R2012a will vary according to the version installed)
    • Set the permissions to read/write: Right-click over the folder name, Properties, Security tab, Edit, select "Users", check "Full control", OK, OK.
    • Copy the provided startup.m file into this folder
    • When you start MATLAB, it should run the script (startup.m is the script).
