Downloaded and Installed Matlab fine. I was able to access it yesterday however when I tried to access it today the following message appeared: "C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2017b\bin\win64\boost_system-vc140-mt-1_56.dll is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error. Try installing the program again using the original installation media or contact your system administrator or the software vendor for support. Error status 0xc0000020"
This is not the first time I've had this message, I have uninstalled and reinstalled MatLab multiple times and yesterday I factory reset my laptop and reinstalled MatLab. I am on Windows 10.

I also have the same problem and i have reinstalled and installed lots of programmes trying to find the error, but i can't. Could you finally find any solution?

This is most likely caused by a firewall, antivirus, or other security software. You must be able to access esd.mathworks.com for downloads.
Disable any such software and try again.
