Open a GUI directly from desktop (Shortcut) in MATLAB environment

Question

Answer 1

What you actually need is a way to run .m files via the command line - an action which isn't specific to GUIs. A command line operation is something you can bind to a shortcut on your desktop or execute using a batch file.

The solution you're looking for is a combination of MATLAB-specific syntax and a straightforward batch file creation procedure:

1. Open a text editor.

2. Write this inside: "C:\\matlab.exe" -nodisplay -nosplash -nodesktop -r "cd('C:\\'); run('C:\\mfile.m');"

3. Save the file as .bat (in windows) and run.
