Export to PDF, selecting a PDF file that already exists. Sometimes the Confirmation dialog box shows up tiny, cannot see any text, cannot do anything to close it, I need to terminate program in Task Manager. Seen in
Windows 7, MS v3.0.2.5315

This becomes a problem only if I forget to save the mscz before the export!

a) I don't think that dialog to be too small

b) hitting either yes or no and the dialog vanishes (with or without overwriting)

Yes, usually I get that normal dialog which is obviously not too small; but when the bug occurs, the box is the size of one capital letter and shows nothing inside. It cannot be enlarged in the usual way of tugging the cursor on the corner. Next time it happens, I'll try to get a screenshot. And nothing I type has any effect; not even Esc, Alt-F4, etc. The only way out that I've been able to find is to go to Task Manager and terminate musescore.exe. I try to remember to save before PDF export. I'm also trying to identify any other contributing factors.

OK, it happened just now, and I grabbed the attached screenshot. Look for the shrunken confirmation dialog box in the upper left . I cannot close the window, nothing I type gets any response: "Y", "N", Alt-F4, Esc, Break. The only way out is to terminate from Task Manager. It does not happen frequently enough for me to detect a pattern (nor to remember to save before exporting!).
