Musescore 4 won't allow me to save scores
Hello,
I have been using Musescore 4 since it was in development and Ive had minimal issues other than the occasional notation bugs which could easily be fixed by simply relaunching the program. However in recent times my musescore has been acting up. Before it used to corrupt random files even if I didn't open them. This does not happen anymore but now a new issue has arisen, and that is that I cannot save progress on any score I have in musescore 4. I attached a screenshot for the error message. I have uninstalled musescore 4 and the musescore hub about 3 times already and the same issue keeps occuring. Please help.

I have the same problem ... i can save this file but I cannot save my own.
Is this score pre 4.2.1?
My guess is that the location you are trying to save to is invalid. Try saving it somewhere else.

I have the problem in MS4.2 . Did not find any solution sofar. HELPPPPPPP
I too can no longer save files or export them, whereas it used to be possible. When you attempt to do it, no matter where on your computer you try to save it, it simply doesn't do anything. This is extremely annoying! Perhaps it's time to find a different software program that actually works!!!

Where are you saving files?
Check in Edit>Preferences>Folders.
Can you save the above file?
Perhaps try a reset from the HELP tab.
As you know, if you just hit Save, the file will update to where ever it came from. Nothing changes on your screen. If you choose Save As, you will be asked for a title and save location.

Are you, by any chance, using the Windows Security feature "Controlled Folder Access"? If so, you might have to allow the new version of Musescore access to the folder you want to save your scores to.
