Two questions about .mscz files

• Sep 13, 2018 - 15:30

How do I remove a .mscz score from THIS forum (NOT from Dot Com, the instructions of which I DID find.)

Also, I noticed in my folder that this score has two files. One includes the title followed by _0. Do I need these extra files? Or delete?

Only an administrator can remove a score from the site after about 12 hours. You'll need to use the Contact us link at the bottom to ask them to remove your file.

The Filename_0.mscz file you have is the second file with the same name you saved to the same folder. You probably downloaded it from the forum and may have changes you want in it. Make sure you don't need changes from it before you delete it.

Thanks,Mike. Makes sense.

Alas! And now I find in my recent files one with the unlikely title ScT27744.mscz. It is a blank page which shows up on the recent file screen. I do not trust this junk popping up. I deleted it and it remained. I then cleared the recent files and it did not reappear (thus far). I wonder what that was all about.

That is a file created by autosave. It is the file used when MuseScore recovers after a crash. You will normally not see more of those files than you have open at one time, but there are exceptions and I don't think they are that important to completely understand.
