Error/warning Import Data from .xlsx file

Hi:

I get this error/warning when I try to import an excel spreadsheet using the "Import Data" button.

Is this something I should be worried about? And is there a way to get rid of this warning?

Does not appear to impact importing a spreadsheet as a Matlab Table.

Thanks and regards,

Dom

This warning may be due to some conflict between Mac system preferences, you can try going to preferences -> security and privacy -> file and folder -> and checking all the boxes under MATLAB.

Thank you Meena:

Matlab is already checked (as having access to the Dcouments folder) under -> files/folders.

It does not appear anywhere else in preferences.

Giving Matlab full disk access does not resolve the issue either. I had recently installed Cytoscape and I have uninstalled that as well. Makes no difference.

Thanks for taking the time to respond. I really appreciate.
