Win 10 / MS 3.0.0, 26ad655

I copied and pasted the custom workspace from MS 2.2 (Portable) to the " … Musescore3Development > workspaces" folder. On opening MuseScore 3, most of the custom workspace palettes have been lost. See attached workspace.

The uploaded workspace was originally created probably in 2015. Not sure what version of MS it was then. It has been added to and modified since that date. But it is an exact copy of the one working in MS 2.2 portable and MS 2.3.

OK, I've double-checked: the workspace you attached here has definitely not been last saved with MuseScore 2.x, but with a 3.x development build.
A 2.x wokspace has this:

<museScore version="2.06">

your's has

<museScore version="3.01">

so clearly is 3.x workspace

I've just saved an edited version of the workspace from MS 2.2 (see zip attachment). Presumably this creates a version 2.2 workspace? However, copying it over to MS 3.0.0 still gives the same result: most of the palettes have been lost.

A 2.x workspace is a 2.x workspace, throughout all 2.x versions, all have that 2.06 file version.
Copying it across to 3.0 and running 3.0 with it, may have changed the file version to 3.01, but still not understand the internal structure.

Severity S4 - Minor S2 - Critical
Regression Yes
Workaround No

Critical, surely, as parts of the user workspace are being lost.

@geetar could you please attach initial 2.X workspace so we could verify the structure and understand whether it is possible to support custom 2.X workspaces in 3.0 out of the box?
