Same on W10. I have the feeling that MuseScore did exactly what you told it to. Should it do that? I don't know. In the mean time, delete the extra accent or don't add them that way.

"Should it do that?". Yes. It is quite reasonable, if uncommon, to have an accent on a tied-to note. With a wind instrument it is instruction to the player to increase the amount of puff at that instant but not to re-articulate the note. I have seen and played examples where several consecutively tied notes are each marked with an accent to indicate a pulsing effect.
