Or does only 5.9 work as implied by https://musescore.org/en/handbook/developers-handbook/compilation/compi… ?
(Go to the latest 5.9 version (5.9.7 for now))

Thanks Jojo.
I have followed the instructions from https://musescore.org/en/handbook/developers-handbook/compilation/compi…

'QWebEngineUrlRequestInterceptor': base class undefined (compiling source file C:\dev\MuseScore\mscore\musescore.cpp) mscore c:\dev\musescore\mscore\startcenter.h 24
Can you help me please?

It is compiling now, but execution is failing with:
"libvorbisfile.dll was not found."
The file with this name is present in C:\dev\MuseScore\dependencies\libx64
but this folder is not in the path variable, and I don't find any instruction asking to add it to the path.

It is working now! I'm in the debugger hopefully to be able one day to help MuseScore dev.
Lot of things to remember about C++ first though (it is a long time ago).
Challenge one: find how to solve "Value is optimized away and not available" in the debugger.

I have exactly the same problem. How did you solve it, to be able to debug the executable in mvsc.install_x64?
