Musescore is no longer allowing me to edit my scores
Musescore suddenly took an update (maybe?) and it renamed a bunch of my scores with these odd titles, and i'm suddenly no longer to edit them in any way. It also won't respond to any keyboard commands, (like the space bar to play/pause or the delete button).
Here's one of the names it gave one of my scores: sclclzUp
I'm running Musescore 3 on a windows computer. I'm supposed to prepare this song our band so please help. Thanks!

I would totally upload it, but I can't seem to find it now? I went into the Musescore folder and it's not there? I can open it when I open Musescore and it shows me the scores that I worked on most recently, but I can't find it otherwise?

You said "bunch". Upload any one of them.

Okay I saved it again and replaced the old version, so here's the file that I'm trying to work on. (None of my songs are allowing me to edit however, so it's not just this one file)

I'm having a hard time finding the "help" button. Is it in the app after you open it? Or do you need to right click on the app to find it?

You're welcome. I just wonder which bogus setting could have caused it.
@squishyhusky1, see: https://musescore.org/en/node/52116 because I think they're backup files or automatic saves.

Hi! I followed the directions to enable the viewing of hidden files, but I still can't edit anything, and the original song with the normal title is still missing.

I've noticed that I can actually edit, but only by using the mouse functions. It still doesn't respond to my keyboard though.
