Found problem with opening MATLAB and possible solution https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/96260-why-do-i-receive-the-error-undefined-function-or-variable-usejava-when-trying-to-start-matlab-6 but did not have time to try it.
Got Matlab working by changing the privileges above. I had to also give everyone the right to modify pathdef before Matlab accepted it. When opening Matlab, there are a bunch of files that we don't have permission to run because they are in Amir's user folder but they do not seem important to the Entrep code so I am ignoring this for now.
I went through to fix the permission denied error that displays at the beginning of every time one opens Matlab. First, I used admin privildeges to let myself into Amir's account, then copy and pasted all the folders that he had added to the pathdef.m file. Then I copied them into E:/McNair/Software/Scripts/MatlabFolders. Then, I took myself off the permissions for Amir's folders. Next, I changed all of the path definitions that had lead to Amir's folder to start with this new path. Now, the permission denied error does not show up.
Running code on all potential variable paths and saving error code.

==Notes 6/28/17==
The following is for '''MonteData -> MSM -> Genetic Algorithm'''
Figured out that the value "W" in msmf_corr_coeff.m is an empty vector. <br>
When it is multiplied by mm-M0 (which always happens to be 0), it returns an empty vector <br>
This is why the error suggests the fitness function must return a scalar value <br>
When I assign W =6 for example, the program runs just fine. <br>
I need to figure out what W does and how it is assigned in order to fix this issue. <br>
