This seems to be an old bug, and it should be fixed in 3.6.1 but i'm using 3.6.2 and it's back (original bug https://musescore.org/en/node/315529)

  • Open musescore
  • download and open an mscz file
  • It open it in musescore, and freeze
  • Close everything...
  • Just double-click on the mscz file, it will open Musescore properly, without any freeze.

I'm on Big Sur in a MacBook with the M1 chip. MuseScore 3.6.2. I'm not sure it's the same issue as you.

As I enter into new charts, manually, it keeps crashing and I have to re-open it, usually losing several previous entries. It seems to occur in any mode -- Text entry (Chord symbols, Rehearsal marks), note entry (eighth and quarter notes and rests), etc. I often loose a little with each crash -- many times per hour. Sometimes a minute apart and sometimes 10 minutes.

I'll do more research, but will look back here for answers. It might just be a compatibility issue with Apple's new architecture.
