Welcome aboard, try changing Browser
And if that doesn't work, please tell us what browsers you have tried, what OS you are on, and what specifically goes wrong.

I have Vista and FF 39.0 and downloading works. Check the option "allow MuseScore" on your antivirus Try to change the destination folder of the download.
Tries to give more information. For example: you receive a warning?/which antivirus do you use?
Try this direct link http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/musescore/releases/MuseScore-2.0.2/MuseScore-…

Sorry, error
Application downloaded just fine. Working on my wife's PC. She has the same problem I did. Musescore downloads and installs ok. Starts to open with circling button then just stops. It had been working great for several weeks even with windows 10. I am wondering if one of the updates could have screwed up the ability of musescore 2.02 to open. Tried the portable file, same problems. tried the running as administrator same problem, Ran the compatability issue and according to Microsoft it is not compatable with 10. However on my PC it opens fine in windows 10. Not sure what the difference is between the 2 pc except that I removed avg, advanced system care , spybot all of which I have suggested has negative effects on the ability to install or run other programs. Has anyone experienced this aspect.

@unhappykappy Could you try to revert your MuseScore to factory settings? Find the instructions at https://musescore.org/en/handbook/revert-factory-settings-0 Keep us posted on the results. Thanks.
Ran the musescore.exe -F as directed and got the blue circle suggesting that was happening but only lasted 3 sec. then back to command line. Unable to ascertain anything working in background. but does not look like it.

Can you check if MuseScore is not already running? Press Ctrl + Shift + Echap to display the process list.
In reply to Can you check if MuseScore is by [DELETED] 5
Not sure what you mean by Echap. Did the 3 finger salute from command line as well as desktop. Nothing happened. Looked in task manager processes and services and no musescore.m also tried some command line options such as mscore -d or musescore.exe -d for debug. I read somewhere that someone had debuged it and I was unable to find that file or location of the person.

Crlt+Shift+Esc, should bring up the Task manager
In reply to Crlt+Shift+Esc, should bring by Jojo-Schmitz
actually crlt+alt+delete brings up task manager menu for opening task manager. Crlt+shift+esc opens the task manager. Thank you making me aware of that aspect. However I could not find any reference to musescore under processes or under services. I did a complete uninstall and reinstall but I had not rebooted the PC in between. Sometimes that can make a difference. I am going to try it.
