And you have done this for each and every file? Post the files and someone can have a look at them.
"I've lost all my musescore files..."
MuseScore is designed to do its best to protect your files.:
1. By default Autosave is turned on: check it in (Edit > Preferences > General ? Auto save > every three minutes).
2. You will find a hidden folder as a sub-folder of your Scores folder, where backup files get saved. This folder is named .msbackup, so you might need to change your computer's operating system to enable "Show Hidden Files" - or something similar.
3. So where is your Scores folder by default? Look in: Edit > Preferences > General > Folders > Scores.
4. Last resort: on Windows you might find that OneDrive is automatically backing up your files.
The real advice is this:
Don't trust any software program to do the right thing all the time. Make your own occasional manual backups!
