Musescore 3 isn't launching
I have used Musescore for almost a year now, and I've had no problems with it. But now, it just won't open. I tried opening it from the Taskbar, from a Desktop Shortcut, from the Musescore 3\bin folder, opening a .mscz score file, repairing it using the installer, uninstaling it and then installing it again, using the -F and -w options in the "run" thing (idk what it's called), but nothing worked. I use Windows 11, no plugins. Can someone please help me?

Have you looked in the Task Manager. I have found that sometimes Musescore leaves behind a "zombie" instance that prevents a new instance launching. If you kill all Musescore instances in the task manager or re-boot your system you may find Musescore works normally again.
If not come back and perhaps someone else will have a better suggestion.

I tried this, and also looked for any processes with the Musescore icon. Unfortunately, it changed nothing.
How long are you waiting? If your default printer is not reachable, it could take several minutes for the system to give up. Try selecting something like the Microsoft PDF printer as your default if it isn't already.
