Compile a score and save it as PDF;
Edit score (for example, add notes) and save it as PDF.
Do you mean that the new PDF is exactly the same?

I did this, and I got two different PDF (I have not saved the changes to *. Mscz).

I meant that there is no changes in the same PDF, not in new.

I have not saved the changes to *. Mscz
In any way.

If you need, in case of an emergency, you can attach the file and one of us can convert it.
But, I hope, will find a way to overcome the obstacles that sometimes the pc wreaks on our way
Maybe saving a copy of *. Mscz in a folder created for the purpose, and then saving as PDF.

If we do not find out other solutions consider "case closed"?
Good music.

I have seen a weird bug on Windows on very rare occasions where files in certain folders don't appear to be updated if you re-save them. Some sort of caching bug, I guess. I've never tracked down what causes it exactly, but it always goes away after a while - suddenly, the update version of the file just appears. Workaround is to save under a different filename until Windows wakes up and realizes the file has changed.
