I'm trying to run a code using the Parallel Computing Toolbox remotely on a server using Microsoft Remote Desktop. This code runs fine with no issues on other machines (Mac & PC) but when I get to the point where I initiate the creation of a parpool, I get an error saying "Microsoft HPC MPI Application Launch has stopped working." I'm completely lost as to where to start looking to address this problem. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

I also ran in to this and resolved it by installing Microsoft's Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package (x64).

Ran into the same issue using R2015a on Windows Server 2012 on Amazon EC2. The VC++ 2010 redist worked for me as well.
