Hello,
I have a Matlab Gui that I want to convert to a stand alone application using Matlab Compiler. I watched the tutorials which were really helpful and easy. The entire process seemed to work, but now when I run the .exe, I receive an error that a specific jpg is missing. Made sure to include this file in the "files installed for your end user section". I'm not sure why Matlab is not finding it. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,

You should give full paths to read files really, especially when you compile a program as these will be in different locations and not on the Matlab path (which data folders shouldn't really be anyway).
doc ctfroot
can help you determine the correct location for a deployed app.
doc isdeployed
is also useful here to ensure you look for the file in the right place when it is deployed or not deployed.

Very helpful to uncheck the hide of the console (windows command shell) for debugging - take a screenshot of the all console before it dissapear, and then try from that to understand the real problem.
Because the message is very not descriptive and in the console there are much more information.
For my case, a missing file wasn't in the project and the message just tell about a line and only in the console the warning of the file missing catch me.
