Thank you for reporting this problem. Did you try to uninstall and reinstall MuseScore again?

Alternatively you could also check for MuseScore in the windows store. It's a free download.

i have exactly the same issue since the Fall Creators update. Uninstalling/Reinstalling - or dwonloading from Windows Store produce the same effect. After installation and after clicking Finish, then starting the application leads to 'installing' and the message keeps frozen... "Windows Installer" -- Preparing Installation. See attached screenshot.

I have installed the Windows Creators Update (Windows10 version 1709) on a spare laptop and there it seems to work. No idea whether someone did anything about the issue and if I can safely now install the Windows Creators Update on my main laptop ....
