Musescore Can't Start on Windows 11
hello, I need some help on fixing the application on Windows 11. Musescore used to work correctly on my windows 10 desktop, but it couldn't start after windows 11 upgrade, the UI stopped at "Creating main window..." forever, I tried both x86 and x64 version, run as administrator, they showed the same result: stopped at the "Creating main window..." , can anyone help me to fix this issue?
musescore version: 3.6.2
windows 11 home version: 21H2
OS build: 22000.318
