Bug when opening MuseScore
I just installed the latest update (4.4.1.242490810), and now every time I try to open a MuseScore file, the MuseScore app opens and then immediately quits. The only way I can access my files is by opening the MuseScore application first and then selecting the file I want to open. But double-clicking a MuseScore file directly results in the immediate app crash. :/

I tried doing that, and it didn't fix the problem, unfortunately.
Problem is still ongoing - anyone else have any ideas, please?
Also, once I have opened MuseScore and I open multiple files, each one opens its own dock icon, as if each file is opening a separate app (see screenshot). This is definitely not how MuseScore (or any other app) is supposed to work.
(I did try completely uninstalling MuseScore and re-downloading and re-installing. Didn't help.)

MS4 is supposed to open each score in a separate instance of the program.
See https://musescore.org/en/node/338084
MS3 uses a single instance with a multi-tabbed interface.

Ah, I see--thanks for that info! (I will revert to MuseScore 3 so I can avoid having 17 separate instances open up when I'm grading my students assignments, sigh...)

Do make sure to use MS3.7 as it has many improvements over MS3.6.2 including the ability to open MS4 scores.
