Please help me enable the Musescore feature that plays chords.
Also how to I remove Elements Group?

Thanks. The individual chord (for example E7) plays when I touch it. I want all the chords to play automatically as Musescore moves through the my lead sheet. How do I do this? If you want me to go to Inspector, please tell me how. I am now able to upload the file because I got rid of a rectangle (Inspector? Group Elements?) which was blocking my screen) Thanks

Playback for them is disabled, and via a style setting, see https://musescore.org/en/handbook/3/playback-chord-symbols-nashville-nu…

Try what? I can play one chord. I cannot play all the chords.

Try the attached score or that style setting

Chord symbol playback should be on by default for all new scores. Only old scores - ones created before chord symbol playback was added last year - would have it off. According to the note on your score, this was just written today, so the chords should have played already. Did you perhaps create this by copying an older score or template? Best to update that if so.
The Inspector is normally open at all times, unless you previously closed it. If so, simply reopen it by selecting it from the View menu. Then, select one chord symbol (doesn't matter which), turn on the Play box in the Inspector, then click the "S" icon next to that control to make this the style setting that would then affect all chord symbols.

The score surely stems from pre 3.6

Ah, I see, even though the date shown on the score is 2022, and Score Properties reports it was created in 3.6.2, the "creation date" is from 2020. So indeed, it appears this score was created by first copying a two-year-old score, which would explain the problem.

Yes. It's an old score. I called it by today's date for my own files so I know it's a rewrite, but the original is old.
It's not clear what you mean by "Elements Group" but I guess you are talking about what the Inspector displays if you have a group of elements selected instead of just a single element. No need to remove it' you want the Inspector open. To show something more useful, simply select a single element (or at least, limit your selection to elements of the same type).

Thanks for everyone's help. My problem seems to be fixed, and the chords are playing correctly! (I'm not sure exactly why.) I changed dates on my file to help me find it on my computer, but that did not change the original file, which probably led to confusion in communication. Thanks again :)
