I have upgraded to the newest version: Problems persist: I can open a file, but I cannot play it, it just stands still!

Just to be clear, you can open MuseScore and load a score. When does it crash? Are the play controls "grayed out?

Thank you. In the meantime I tested, firstly, an older musescore version 2 which I did not delete and played well one score (with an appropriate .2 file version).
Then I turned back to test version 3.6.1 and something new happened:
1) I clicked the play icon (the "triangle" on the top bar command line) and, as previously, the score did not run (answering to your question, the play icon and the pallete on the left both turned gray); however, a permanent sound (a noise, sort of a whistle);
2) then I insisted a couple of times, by clicking on & off the play command and, finally, the score was played, but the sound was joined by some incidental "dirt" noise, similar the the ones we hear when there's some sort of malfunction/ poor contact with the speakers.
That is the status so far. It runs the score, but the music does not play "clean".
I tried to attach a file I recorded to show the result, but the file "extension" (.m4a) is not allowed within this platform. I can email it, if needed.
Regards,
Thank you a lot,
Joao

It happened again, after reloading the program again. The score did not play (see file #1 ); and when I tried to close rhe project in order to choose another file, the program blocked that action (file #2). I had to shut down the program. I cannot pplay any score. Should I try to reinstal an older version?
Thanks for any help,
Joao
