I want to open matlab with Excel with the 'shell'- command. Matlab opens up, but is stuck in initializing mode. How can I fix this?

Your MATLAB's preference directory might be corrupted.

Delete the folder (you can know the location by prefdir command in MATLAB)

If your MATLAB version is R2019b, the directory is

C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Roaming\MathWorks\MATLAB\R2019b

where XXX is your account name.

After deleting this folder, then call MATLAB again. The folder will be created.
