Issues when exporting Creo Model with Simscape toolkit

Hello,

I went through the setup guide for enabling Simscape Multibody Plugin in Creo-Pro/E.

The issue that I'm running into is when I try to export, I receive an error saying that Matlab is not running as an automation server. I have ran Matlab as an Administrator and typed in: regmatlabserver and checked that it was enabled by running [s, msg] = regmatlabserver

What I'm noticing is that when I export, it creates a new matlab command window instance - Is this creating another automation server instance with default permissions?

Creo version: 8
