I got the same problem and I got recovered my docked files from the editor.

I have tried Yair Altman's post but not understood. Thats why I have committed to answer the question.

The steps are so simple and easy.

1] go to command prompt

>> winopen(prefdir) % this will open the folder

2] in the folder open MATLAB_Editor_State.xml file in wordpad or XML editor.

If you are unknown to XML editor then go to google and search for online XML editor.

3] Copy and paste XML Data from Wordpad to the online editor and press submit.

4] you will get all the path for each file including the filename.

%parse XML file
xmlFiles    = xmlread([prefdir filesep 'MATLAB_Editor_State.xml']);
%Retrieve the "clients"
FileNodes   = xmlFiles.getElementsByTagName('File');
%get the length of the FileNodes
nrFiles     = FileNodes.getLength;
%initialize Files
Files       = cell(nrFiles,1);
%initialize isFile
isFile      = zeros(nrFiles,1);
%Iterate over all Elements and check if it is a file.
for iNode = 0:nrFiles-1 % Java indexing.
    %Files
    Files{iNode+1} = [char(FileNodes.item(iNode).getAttribute('absPath')),...
        filesep,char(FileNodes.item(iNode).getAttribute('name'))];
    %check if the "client" is a file:
    isFile(iNode+1) = exist(Files{iNode+1},'file') == 2 && ~(strcmp(Files{iNode+1},'Workspace'));
end
%remove the other files:
MyFiles = Files(find(isFile));
%open the files in the editor:
edit(MyFiles{:});

Unfortunately, there is not.

However, in the File Exchange there are at least a couple of contributions, which try to help:
