Cannot open file
Hi
I am having issues with opening the attached file.
Using version 3.6.2.548021803 (on win 10 machine), musescore crashes
Using version 3.5.0.13199 (on win 10 machine), the attached error message is received.
Any thoughts or workarounds? I have lots of files created the same time and I need a quick fix.
Ian

Yes, that score crashes in MS 3.6.2 on Windows 10 for me too.
As you have MS 3.5.0 available, what happens if you open the file and then click Ignore on the error dialog? That seems to me to be your best route out of this.

3.4.2/3.5.2/3.6.2 the same (fatal error line 2 column 26) :(

I don't see that fatal error, just a hang/crash in 3.6.2 and 3.5.2
And looking at that line/column in the mscx I can't see anything wrong

If I ignore the error, MS 3.5.0 hangs and eventually crashes.

Other files from the same work, when saved using MS 3.6 will open in MS 3.5, so possibly a corrupted file?

Renaming it to *.zip and extracting it I got a couple of files that show errors (as mentioned above) maybe Jojo or others can correct it, wait a bit.

Opening it in debug build gives tons of warnings reg. Slurs and Hairpins

That score seems to have been migrated form MuseScore 2.x to 3.6.2, do you still have the 2.x version of that score?

Sadly - no :(

I have found an old version in an archive and have successfully opened it in 3.6.2. However, when I save the file in the updated format and close the file, I cannot reopen it and MS eventually crashes.
Version 2 file attached.

That is the score from 2.3.2 I asked for ;-)
Checking into it
In reply to I have found an old version… by ianjwesley
The score has an unbelievable huge amount of slurs, some 100,000...
And some 30,000 hairpins
I've opened it in 2.3.2, switch to page view, removed all parts, (reduced size to some 700kb, so not very much), then saved as mscx.
Then I manually removed all slurs and hairpins.
Open in 3.6.2, kept old style, saved, result attached, size reduced down to 90KB!
Seems to open fine (and rather quick) in 3.6.2 now.

Seems the slurs were not the (main) problem, but the the hairpins, so attached a score with 'just' all hairpins removed, size still much smaller, down to 100kb, from 770 KB.
So some 600kb amounted for those haripins and probably also lots of the slurs, where I guess all the duplicate ones lost/fix by saving it with 3.6.2

So now you could either continue to use MuseScore 2.3.2 on your backup (which is reacting very slow on that score), or use my last 3.6.2 version of it and check and re-add hairpins (and (de-)crescendo lines) as needed.
You may want to regenerate the parts too.
The real mess with multiple hairpins is at measure 228 and to a (far!) lesser extend in some of the folowing measured bu to 236 or so
In reply to I have found an old version… by ianjwesley
Tada!
Attached a fixed version for 2.3.2 and 3.6.2, still with parts removed (should be easy to re-generate) and also with all superfluos/duplicate/bogus hairpins removed (and in the 3.6.2 version also all superfluos/duplicate/bogus slurs, MuseScore cleaned those up automatically), but having kept the wanted ones (I hope)
Hairpin-wise the measure 229 and 234/235 have been modified, so please double check those (esp. the 2.3.2 version still has a few that don't belong there, for demo ;-))
Also attach a version fully converted to 3.6.2 and all ist's default settings, with all parts being generated.
Reg. these superfluous slurs see https://musescore.org/en/node/138061 and https://musescore.org/en/node/275514, and also #138756: Unterminated slurs multiply with every save
a fixed 2.3.2 version now attached too

Thanks very much - it has saved me a lot of time and heartache.
