Can't click the playback button.
I've been using Musescore 3 for a while, and for some reason it started to not open up the sheets after creating or opening a project, so I did the "Revert to factory settings" thing and after that the playback button is just appearing grey and it won't let me click it, space bar doesn't work either. Same with the buttons near it (see picture). I tried uninstalling and re-installing again (I installed the upgraded version, 3.5) and it still won't work. Help is appreciated.

My windows 10 just updated (but I had no problems with playback) and this is a common time for people to have playback issues with MuseScore. The 2 things that most often fix it are making sure your audio driver is up to date and making sure MuseScore didn't get muted in the Windows Volume Mixer.
You can try going into preferences, changing the Audio output device (to anything), apply it, then change it back and apply it. See also #308469: New post Changing audio output device frustrating - selections disappear for a potential bug you may encounter along with a workaround.

I checked, MuseScore isn't muted in the volume mixer and my audio driver is up to date. Also I can't change the audio devices, it doesn't give me any option when I click to change them.

I suspect the answer is somewhere in preferences but I'm not familiar enough with that part to help you more. Someone else should see this in the next day or so and give you more ideas.
it could possibly be any of your desktop apps that are affecting this. it happened me a few times b/c it turns out i used fl studio a lot and for some reason it conflicts with some of the buttons in musescore. so i had to delete fl studio temporarily and restart my computer to get it working again. idk if it helps but its one likely reason that it could happen.

Nothing happens, I have the same issue. Would be really great if someone also told me about it.
Hey, I just had the very same problem with Musescore 3.6.2 and I may have found the source of the problem. I noticed that it stopped working after I installed Kristal Audio Engine. Somehow, this software was interfering on Musescore's audio system and only after I uninstalled this software, Musescore started working again. So check if you haven't installed any software which's using the same audio systems than Musescore and try to uninstall it, too, ok?
