Perhaps I should download Muse Score again

Make sure that the number lock is OFF if you want to delete the bar completely with Ctrl+Del. At least that's how it works on my PC. (I have another delete key on my keyboard so I don't need to worry about the number lock.)

To delete as desired at the end, you can also use "Tools / Remove empty trailing measures".
But of course Ctrl-Del should work as well.
By the way: In your score there are still problems with the tempo. The tempo indication '40' does not work, because it is also tied to the first note in the 1st measure.
To set the tempo, you have to select the note from which a new tempo indication is to take effect. So in the example the tempo '120' is correct, in measure 1. I think the first note in measure 4 should be set to e.g. tempo 60 (or 40).
Just a suggestion, it will then much better fit to e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yj_3scEyVoI ...
There is a known bug where if you accidentally press Ctrl+I while not editing text, it puts you in an undocumented special mode in which the remove selected range command is disabled. Press Ctrl+I again to get out of that special mode. Or restart MuseScore.
