Support package paths are loaded during MATLAB startup. Therefore, it is expected that support package paths are not on the MATLAB path after executing 'restoredefaultpath'.
Therefore, to restore your support package paths, restart MATLAB. During startup, MATLAB will automatically regenerate the support package paths under the root folder returned by 'matlabshared.supportpkg.getSupportPackageRoot' and add them to the MATLAB path.
