Re-enable the Current Folder Window:
- Open MATLAB and go to the top menu bar.
- Click on the Home tab.
- In the Environment section, find and click on the Layout button.
- From the dropdown menu, ensure that the Current Folder option is checked. If it's unchecked, click on it to re-display the "Current Folder" window.
Use the Command Window:
- As an alternative, you can type the below command in the MATLAB Command Window and press Enter. This command will open the "Current Folder" window.
Reset MATLAB Layout:
- If the window does not appear after trying the above methods, you can reset the layout to its default settings.
- Go back to the Home tab.
- Click on Layout in the Environment section.
- Select "Default" from the dropdown menu to restore the original layout, which includes the "Current Folder" window.
