4.5.2

For free software this is great. But every update comes with some decent features, and seems to take away key ones that can render your entire composition useless. The amount of times I’ve had to start a new composition from scratch after an update is worth probably a week of work. If the app is working for you do NOT update. EVER.

4.6.3

It's still crashing immediately upon opening in 4.6.3. 4.6.1 did not have this problem, but other than that, I really have no clue. Great product when it works though!

Partner Response: We saw several reports of crashes in MuseScore 4.6 that were caused by older versions of MuseScore 4 being present on the same Windows machine. This might affect you if you used earlier versions of MuseHub, which used to install MuseScore to a different location. If so, please make sure the old versions are fully removed before you upgrade to the new version. If you do want to use multiple versions of MuseScore 4 on Windows, consider using the portable EXE for past versions, and use MuseHub or the standard MSI installer for the current stable release. Please note, using multiple MuseScore 4 versions is not a supported configuration on any operating system. In particular, when you switch to an older MuseScore 4 version, you may experience strange UI bugs until you use Help > Reset to factory settings. This does not apply to running MuseScore 3 and MuseScore 4 on the same machine, which is supported via the standard installers.

the new version 4.6.2 keeps shutting down after a few minutes of opening program. Have not been able to keep it open, even after downloading update.

After I downloaded the new update, the soundfonts for the regular orchestral instruments disappeared. Idk if it's an issue on my end or musescore's?
