How can i install the vr editor in the student version?

I downloaded and installed the Simulink 3D animation toolbox for my student version of MATLAB r2014a. When i enter the command:

vrinstall -install editor

i get:

Editor will not be installed on this platform.

Why do i keep getting this message? Why can't i install the editor?

Thanks for your help.

This message is printed when you are trying to install V-Realm Builder (an external VRML editor) on a platform that is not supported. V-Realm Builder is supported only on Windows.

For other platforms, please just use the built-in editor. This editor does not need to be installed, please just launch it by

edit(vrworld('your_vrml_file.wrl'))

or interactively from a vrfigure menu bar, or from the Apps bar. The built-in editor also works on Windows and may be a good choice over V-Realm Builder anyway.

When I ran edit(vrworld('my_file_name.wrl')), I am getting the following error: This operation is not permitted in the demonstration version of Simulink 3D Animation. I am having student license.
