Trying to launch MuseScore 3.5 on launch continues to constantly crash. It is able to load in "-s" mode. I am on a Dell Inspiron 13, with the MaxxAudioPro preinstalled. I also recently downloaded the DrumLine extension.

The splash screen goes away naturally. It crashes within a second of the blank score appearing. It doesn't matter if I try to restore the previous session or not, it crashes regardless. I have been able to press buttons within that second, so it's not unresponsive. My computer can start it up again the instant it goes down, so it's not struggling or anything, it just seems to terminate itself.

The problem seems to be with the Start Center.
Find your MuseScore 'scores' folder & double click on one of your scores. This will open Musescore. Then go 'Edit/Preferences' and then in the 'General/Program Start' section untick the 'Show Start Center' box. Click on 'OK'.
Close MuseScore and then open it as normal. It opens for me OK, but of course without showing the Start Center.

Regression No Yes

It seems to work when I reset Musescore, but reinstalling the Drumline Extension causes Musescore to crash again. I feel like this may be the issuse, as it worked fine without the Drumline Extension, but the issues occur when it's downloaded, as that's when I started having these issues.
