How can i install the robotics toolbox in matlab?

 Accepted Answer

To install the Toolbox simply unpack the archive which will create the directory (folder) rvctools, and within that the directories robot, simulink, and common.
Adjust your MATLABPATH to include rvctools
Execute the startup file rvctools/startup_rvc.m and this will place the correct directories in your MATLAB path.

I have to reinstall the robotics toolbox every time I start MATLAB, is there a way to install it so that it will stay installed?

You should be able to use pathtool to permanently add rvctools to your MATLAB path. After that it would be a matter of adding a startup.m file in your MATLAB path, with the startup.m file invoking rvctools/startup_rvc

Hello, best regards
I need help, I already created the account for the Matlab drive but it does not allow me to download the RVC1 folder. I need version 9.10.
I appreciate your help.

Did you follow the instructions at
"Install from shared MATLAB Drive folder"
The invitation that would be sent to you does not require that you "download" anything: your MATLAB Drive would gain a new directory that you can cd into and use to install the toolbox.
But the invitation has not appeared to me.
You already have received the invitation. Open the RVC1 folder and run the startup_rvc.m file

The add-on does not come pre-installed, but you should be able to install it into R2016b. I recommend using Add-On Explorer (which was available back in R2016b, I checked.)
