Error message when rim 'plot' or 'imshow', etc

Just updated from 2019a to 2025a, both on the same PC running Windows 10, with Inter(R) UHD Graphics 630, driver version 31.0.101.2134. Error appeared when testing, e.g. plot(randn(1, 64)):
Warning: Error in state of SceneNode.

Contact MATLAB Technical Support:
The most common cause of this sort of problem, is if you accidently have a third-party function with the same name as a Mathworks function.
Experiment by creating a new directory and cd'ing to the directory, and doing
restoredefaultcache; rehash toolboxcache
and trying the plotting again. If the plotting works then you have an interfering function.
Thanks, Walter!
But it does not work.
Can you try casting the data input to the function to uint64 type? For example:
plot(uint64(256*sin(linspace(0,pi,1000))))

Thank you all!
The problem is solved by MATLAB Technical Support -- There are conflicting 'plot()' functions in the Matlab paths. The paths with 3rd party 'plus()' should be removed.

Are you saying that you had folders in your search path that had parentheses in their name, after the plus word? Like "C:\Program FIles\YourBadApp\plus()\something" ?
And you used the SetPath button on the Home tab of the tool ribbon to remove folders that had plus() in the folder name? And then it worked OK? So I guess your "conflicting" plot.m file was in the plus() folder, right?
