The movmean function was introduced in R2016a.

You can use a Moving Average Filter (link) to get essentially the same result.

I'm using R2020b but faced the same problem. any updates?

@david hj — The movmean function is part of core MATLAB, so no Toolboxes are required.

The only solution I can offer is to run these from a script or the Command Window:

restoredefaultpath 
rehash toolboxcache 

If the problem persists, Contact Support.

@david hj Can you show how you're trying to call movmean and the full and exact text of the error message you receive (all the text displayed in red in the Command Window)? The exact message may include details that will help determine why movmean isn't working on your machine (which is a different reason than the original poster.)
