Creating custom score
Hello, This is my second time to be asking this question. Have no found answer yet. How can i simply set up an orchestral/vocal score that is custom--that is, it has the number of staves I need and I can label each instrument/voice as needed. Templates do not work for me. Would someone who knows please answer., My dues are always paid on time for MS.

I don't know which MuseScore version you are using. I can give a tutorial for MuS 3, but it should be quite similar to the newer version.
The first step is to read the manual chapters (MuS 4), starting with https://musescore.org/en/handbook/4/basics for example.
Basically the order is as follows:
Open Musescore, File / New, choose the instruments and sort their order, choose the key signature, time signature, tempo and number of measures, and whether a pickup measure is needed or not. More or less measures can be easily selected later (Add / Measures or Tools / Remove empty trailing measures) and all other settings too.
For more questions, consult the complete manual, where you will find almost all the answers that will come up.
https://musescore.org/en/handbook/4/full-table-contents
Manuals are also available for older MuS versions.
Whether you have paid for a subscription to the Musescore.com score sharing service has no bearing on using the free Musescore notation editing software. It also has no bearing on the support you may or may not receive via this forum in which users of Musescore provide help to each other as their time, inclination and knowledge permits.
I gave an answer to your previous post asking a similar question here https://musescore.org/en/node/354376#comment-1206757 If that did nor provide sufficient help, it would probably have been better to reply to that answer describing why it was not sufficient and providing more detail about what you are trying to achieve. But here we are in your new post and so I will attempt again to address your question:
You say templates do not work for you. Do you mean that there is something about using templates that does not meet your requirements - if so, please describe in more detail what your requirements are; or do you mean that they may meet your requirements but you are having trouble with creating or using custom templates of your own - if so, please describe in more detail at what step in the process you are running into difficulties.
Thank You very much. I did go back and look this up on my old MS handbook.It's been awhile simce I created a new score.

Based on your output here:

It looks like you have previously set up various types of score orchestrations, and only need a refresher.
Unless you are now using MuseScore 4 and are grappling with some of the differences between MuseScore 3 and MuseScore 4?
