No response to the request for re-testing with the latest version, closing as invalid since no one was able to reproduce. If this bug is still present or reappears, feel free to open a new bug report.

Can you re-test with the latest version of Octave (3.8.0)?

Thu 02 Aug 2012 08:43:34 AM UTC, original submission:
  • Octave cannot find the directory containing all function files. It just sais No such file or directory when I try addpath
  • If I cd other than the C drive it claims Permission denied

This bug is critical because it makes octave useless.

Operating system:
Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601] 64-bit

Version of octave:
GNU Octave, version 3.6.2

Octave was configured for "i686-pc-mingw32".
