Unsaved work - Software Randomly Closing

• Sep 3, 2023 - 23:55

I was working on a score and then it closed me out of musescore and when I reopened musescore, the music I was working on, went back to a saved file from many days ago so my work from the past few days has been deleted and I'm not sure how to get it back other than restarting. Thank you

You should of course always save your work regularly in any computer program. In the event of a crash, the simplest is just to reopen the score and you'll have back your last saved version. But if you inadvertently forgot to save for a while the autosave file that is created every few minutes will contain the work you did since your last save. It's in the same folder as your actual score, same filename but with ".,autosave" appended. You will need to turn on the display of hidden files in your OS to see it, and then also rename it to end in just ".mscz".
