MuseScore 2.0.2 blocked with W8.1
Hello and thank you for your time.
I downloaded MusiScore months ago and it was working perfectly.
Today, I cannot open MusicScore! and...
My computer is completely blocked! The only thing I can do it is a hard switch off!
Even Ctrl-Alt-Del does not work! The cursor does not move!
I think no report about this recent bug !
Note I uninstalled and reinstalled twice, standard and portable version... same bug!
Thank you for your comment.
W 8.1 on HP BeatsAudio.
Best Regards - José

Certainly you won't have downloaded MuseScore 2.0.2 months ago, would you?
Have you tried https://musescore.org/en/handbook/revert-factory-settings-0?

Hello, thank you for your feedback.
I do not know which version I downloaded and if/when it has been updated.
Today, I uninstalled the existing version and I downloaded the current version (as it is not possible to find the previous version!)
I tried your idea, same bug!
I tried " -F" from a command line, same bug!
Very repeatable bug, 3 seconds after I launch the MuseScore command, screen is completely freezed and keyboard/mouse become inefficient!
MuseScore does not open.
I noted this in your link:
in
no .ini file, the repertory is empty!?
Note I launched MuseScore as Administrator, same bug!
Thank you again for your help.
Best Regards - José (France).

Perhaps some browser plugin or other software on your system is interfering with MuseScore's normal startup. Try using the "-w" option to disable the web view in the Start Center to see that helps. Or try "-s" to disable audio to see if that helps. See also https://musescore.org/en/node/38301 and try other options to see if any help.

Hello Marc,
Thank you for your time.
No impact, same bug.
I close all Chrome tasks, same bug.
You are right, this issue could come from another program but which one :)
I have another concern, why I don't have a musicscore.ini file???
How can I got a previous Musicscore's version?
Thank you again, José (France).

In reply to Hello, I tried but same bug by Jose Relland
The problem described seems to be the same as one I experienced for months - the 'opening of MS led to a complete freeze of my PC, including the cursor - the only solution was to turn off the machine and reboot (and not open MS). However, about a week ago, when I downloaded 2.0.2 again, it asked me to "repair" during the run of the downloaded file and , since then, I can now open 2.0 without a crash. I do still have a problem with a 1.3 file (which is very large) - after opening the file to attempt to edit and correct it in the new format, I get about 20 seconds to make changes and then the score freezes for between 5 and 10 minutes, I then get another 15-20 seconds before another 5-10 minute "crash". It will take weeks, if I have the patience, to effect the changes and corrections. At least, it doesn't affect the rest of my PC.

Regarding your problem with a particular 1.3 score - feel free to start a new thread and attach the score as well as describe the steps to reproduce the problem. Could be there is a bug that needs fixing, could just be a fact of life that MuseScore can be slow when working with extremely large scores, especially on less powerful computers.
Now everything is ok thank to... Windows 10.
I upgraded my W8.1 to 10 and MuseScore 2.0.2 worked perfectly and from the the first time.
Thank you for your time.
