Recurrent problem: Matlab(R2013a) stopped working?!

Hi

All my Matlab windows close after this message.

This is happening often these days.

I am running programs which finally generate some plots with set(gcf,'Visible',on);

My system configuration:i5 processor, 2 cores, Windows 7 64-bit,

Any help appreciated.

Can you elaborate more on your workflow or what is it that you are trying to achieve? In addition to that:

1. Is the crash reproducible?

2. Can you provide details on how MATLAB is crashing? Like a code snippet or a procedure?

3. If the crash isn't reproducible, is the crash sporadic? Did you do anything different from the time it was not crashing to now? Did you install any other software in that time frame?

Hi Mihir

        1. Yes.
        2. All I did was, produce 10s of 2-d plots and subplots.
        3. it is reproducible, and I started working on Linux station and set(gcf,'Visible','off'); which is working perfect without crashing anymore.
For windows, I haven't tried if this set(gcf,'Visible','on') would make it work.,
My windows station was running only Matlab that time, there was no other significant burdensome task running, as far as I am aware of. 
It's been a while, (~1 month) since I stopped working on my Windows station.

Matlab R2013a on Windows 7 (both 64 bit) closing down after the message 'Matlab stopped working'. Closing is happening very randomly on may events including even if I just scroll down my script file.
