I agree that it's hard to select an accent when it overlaps its notehead. Try this:
Did you somehow add them as non-functional symbols? Because those accent marks for me by default don't collide with noteheads at all.
Which style settings were altered? Can you share a sample score?

I too am unsure. They used to work before.
I'll share the score but I have moved most of the accents.
There is a peculiar thing happening in that when I click on the last accent in the Tenor part, bar 25, Instead of selecting it goes to the score.
PS: I just closed MS and reopened it and that no longer happens.

11 pages of music, 9 instruments, 11 staves... and the accent(s) are located where?

Ah...
Bar 25... thought it was fixed.
Those are 'fake' accent symbols.

How do I fix that? My accent had disappeared. I went to z and found what I though was the accent and re-added it to the pallet.

The z shortcut opens to the 'Symbols' palette. A symbol has no effect on playback. It simply "looks" functional (i.e., for publishing).
In the left area of that dialog window, look for 'Articulations'.
You want the accent that is found in 'Articulations'. Place that into your score.
It will be identified in the Inspector as an 'articulation' once you click it when it is in a score.
EDIT:
See:
https://musescore.org/en/handbook/3/master-palette
and especially this part:
https://musescore.org/en/handbook/3/master-palette#symbols
which says:
"Elements from the Symbols section do not follow any positioning rules (in many cases unlike identical elements from other sections of the Master Palette), nor do they affect score playback."

Thank you. I will try that.

The accent would normally only disappear if you deleted it, and in that case it would show under "More" in the palette ready to be added back from there. Under certain rare cases involving dragging as opposed to the more conventional click method of adding symbols, a palette item can become invisible - leaving a blank hole in the palette. That fixes itself if you change workspaces or restart the program. Also, FWIW, keyboard shortcut for accent is Shift+V.
