Have you uninstalled and then re-installed OR upgraded MATLAB recently?

There is an error due to a specific DLL.

Currently the development team is trying to find the cause.

A bug geck was created for further discussions.

Actually the workaround is to install Visual Studio Express 2017, then uninstall and reinstall MATLAB.
