Run a line once the code is manually stopped

I have a CFD simulation running and a matlab script that reads the outputs of the simulation in real time and plots the residuals. To do this I designed the code in such a way that I have the script in a folder and the results of the simulations in another, and I move to that folder with command cd(simulation_folder) and then open the files I need to plot.

So, I know this is not the optimal way to do this kind of thing, and I already figured out another way to do it, but I noticed one particular thing that got my curiosity: when I stop the code manually (clicking the red stop button), the path is now changed to the simulation's folder, and I had to reset the path to the matlab script's folder manually in order to run it again.

So the question is: is there a way to execute some lines of code after the stop button is pushed?

for a better explanation I leave this pseudo code:

run the simulation
[...]
    %here I click the stop button
    
    % here are the lines I would like to execute after clicking it
if stop_button == clicked
    cd(starting_folder)
end

No direct method is available for this. However you might be able to work it by using onCleanup in a called function.

Or if the function you're calling can accept full file names (with the path information) you could use that (constructed with fullfile) instead of changing directory.
