I myself have never used xlsread.

After some googling, 
I think that something is wrong with Java (Oracle JRE).

If you install MS-Excel(32 bit) on your PC, you can access xlsx via windows and 
MS-Excel internally.
You can do the above when you load the windows package in addition to the io 
package

(You can check your Excel is 32 or 64 bit by task manager.)

>> pkg load io
>> pkg load windows
