I get the same errors in Variation 26 and all normal in variation 27.
Not surprising MS crashed when I tried to fix it.
1st piece also loses title and shows more stray html code in footer. Seems easy to fix.
2nd piece has the same issue with footer.
Looking into the score shows that they had been created with something in between MuseScore 1.x and 2.x, file version 1.22, program version 2.0.0 (certainly wrong), revision 4101M
The separate variations were made with a nightly build of MuseScore 2, from more than a year before the stable build. The full Open Goldberg Variations score should open as expected. So the workaround is to open the full score and extract the variation you need.
Unless someone wants to edit/fix the separate variations, we may simply unpublish them.
Or leave them on the site, just disable the musescore download?
@Thomas - I'm willing to repair them. I'll just need instructions on how to get the repaired files uploaded either through here or privately. I guess I'll need to extract each variation to put them all in a stable current version. I'll use 2.1 build 8620022 since it's what I use for everything else.

I'm ready to start uploading the scores.
I made very few changes and they are limited to
make a few of the ornaments and slurs appear in the correct spot.
Adjust a few rests that were ambiguous (1/2 way between the two staves)
Relocate dedications to bottom of pages ( a few of the variations started in the middle of a page)
Saved them under 2.1

Hi mike320
It's another effort, but because this score was originally produced using a nightly build, I'm wondering if you would perhaps consider this ? It could better-ensure the file's legacy (e.g. minimising scope for problems).
Thanks
@mike320 You can contact support@musescore.com with a zip of the files.
I sent the scores to Thomas to post.
@Mike320 I finally got around uploading the fixed goldberg variations! Thank you again for helping us out with this!
Automatically closed -- issue fixed for 2 weeks with no activity.
It seems there remain some problems—not sure if these are regressions or holdovers, or how many there are, but I immediately see on page 1 (measure 8) a misplaced mordent. Also on page 1, there is inconsistent use of slurs on grace notes—I am not sure if this is a faithful imitation of the original or an error of some sort.
When I updated this file, I only made alterations to fix items that were obviously out of whack. I didn't reference any other scores to check for accuracy. My only goal was to assure the variations could be opened in version 2.x without issue. I don't know if the mordent belongs on the half note or the dotted 1/4 note it is currently on.
If someone would like to check it, I have both my copies of the individual variations and the merged "album" on my computer. I have no problem correcting them and resubmitting them to Thomas to repost, or sending a copy of the variations to anyone wanting to correct them. I would prefer to make many corrections rather than one at a time befor resubmitting however. I would suggest a separate thread be opened to track them, since the issue in this thread is fixed.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15ezpwCHtJs confirms that the grace notes with and without slurs are correct, so never mind. The mordent I'm referring to is in the bass clef, on a dotted eighth note, and it's "misplaced" in the sense that it collides with the beam. Cmd+R fixes it.
