Problem with 2017b student edition

Hi everyone I am having problem with launching ANSYS from 2017b student release. When I execute the following

command = '"C:\Program Files\ANSYS Student\v182\ansys\bin\winx64\ansys182.EXE" -b -i INPUT.MAC -O OUTPUT.TXT'; [status,result] = system(command);

it says 'Mechanical APDL program has stopped working' and closes the ANSYS batch window. Note that the command works perfectly fine with 2014b release.
