Error saving component and code data to 'filename.mlapp'
Show older comments
Hi! I have some problems with app designer. It cannot save nor load applications for editing, though it does run applications already saved in my PC. I'm using windows 10. When I open a new script on app designer and I save it (it does'nt matter if there is something or nithing on the code) an error is given: "Error saving component and code data to 'filename.mlapp'." When loading an application inside app designer, the following error messege is given: "Error loading 'filename.mlapp'.". I can't make matlab show the root for such error, so I have no idea where it is coming from.
Thanks in advance.

What are the components in your app designer .mlapp?Any external components(function, data file,picture)?

Possible post your .mlapp file here? Copy the code and paste it in .m script. because here don't accept .mlapp file

I can't open it as well. I think you may seek advise from mathworks technical support .
However, I will try it if i got idea how to open it.

I had the same problem... you have to save the files on local drive... as network drive does not allow it...

Hello,
Matlab is in an infinit loop processing the data in Workplace.
Go to Command Window,
Clear all
(it should give you all sorts of errors..)
clc
and you're good to go. you can save your work in app designer.
