Hi Scott,

You can try the following fixes

• see what happen when you try to start it from command line. Run following line in terminal

/Applications/MATLAB_R2020b.app/bin/matlab

• It might be a disk access issue (same thing - can't launch from icon but can launch from command line). To fix, go to Preferences>Security & Privacy>Full Disk Acccess, unlock, and click the check box by MATLAB, and it should start launching via the dock icon once more.

I hope this helps
