Hi Yonieq,

After installing MATLAB in Ubuntu machine (Linux mint), please follow the steps shown below:

1) Open a command terminal.

2) Create a desktop shortcut:

nano ~/Desktop/Matlab

3) Copy-paste below lines:

[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Name=MATLAB R2022b
Exec=/usr/local/MATLAB/R2022b/bin/matlab -desktop
Icon=/usr/local/MATLAB/R2022b/resources/coreui/matlab/splash.png
Terminal=false

4) Go to the path /Desktop in the terminal and copy-paste the following:

chmod +x Matlab

Hope this helps!
