Hi, Try using the "cd" function to change the current folder

if true
% Changing folder to desktop before saving figure(1)
cd('C:\Users\....\Desktop')
saveas(figure(1),'png')

end

No! Avoid using cd at all cost. Much better to specify the full path of the file to save.

If you cd functions that were previously visible to matlab may not be accessible anymore and new ones may be visible.

Just specify the path with the filename. You can use fullfile to build the full name:

saveas(hfig, fullfile('C:\folder\where you want\to save', 'somename.png');
