Newly installed MS 4.1.1 closes immediately after start

• Nov 3, 2023 - 13:52

The flash screen is visible for a split second, then it vanishes; and there is no process in the task manager starting with m and looking somewhat like musescore. As said in the subject, this is a fresh install - I have not changed anything (and could not change anything :-( ...).
Also clicking on a .mscz file (from an older MS3 version) exhibits the same behaviour.
Any place I should look specifically to solve this?

Problem solved (but maybe someone else stumbles over the same roadblock): Reaper 7.02 was running, with ASIO4All as sound device. After closing Reaper, MuseScore 4.1.1 started. Interestingly, then starting Reaper worked, and playback in Reaper is fine; but playback in MuseScore is simply blocking. It seems MuseScore is missing a feature to explain to the user (on startup or later when trying to play) that it cannot access some sound device.
