Musescore crashes upon opening
I just opened Musescore to start working on something, and I saw a prompt for an update. I went ahead and let the update do its thing, restarte my computer, and now when I open Musescore. it stops and says that something caused the program to stop working properly, and then when i close that, Musescore closes.
I just went through the whole "Win+R, space then hyphen capital F" business, and it didn't work, and now my app isn't even in dark mode anymore. I need some help here. I have to do a composition by 10/23!

If you haven't upgraded to 3.5.2 do that at https://musescore.org/en/download. Let us know how it works.

This is the upgraded version that is crashing (windows 10). I did the prompted upgrade when I opened Musescore 3. After the looong upgrade and restart, when I opened Musescore 3.5.2. it immediately closes with Windows saying it will send a report. There seems to be some incompatibility somewhere. I am going to attempt to uninstall the upgrade completely and try a fresh download and install directly from the website.

Try starting MuseScore via double click on a score file. If that works, disable Edit > Preferences > Startcenter.
This is a bug that should vane been fixed in 3.5.2 though, see #275837: MuseScore crashes during start-up while displaying "Start center", but give that possible workaround a try anyway

Thanks. I have the latest Musescore and following your suggestion did take care of my issue.

I also had this same issue after updating from 3.5.0 to 3.5.2 (yesterday 11/13/2020), and this workaround fixed it for me as well.
(I'm also on Windows 10 - Version 1903 OS Build 18352.476)
