migrate old soundfonts, settings, etc from musescore 2.0?
I just upgraded the musescore to 3.0 and it installed into its own folder instead of upgrading the older version. and it appears all the history, sound fonts, and settings have reset to the default.
is there a way to migrate all the old stuff into the new install?

You can simply copy the soundfonts and other files. Setting not so much, too much has changed to make this a reliable process.

I can't seem to recall where the soundfont files are located. it's something like user/ something something. I had made a custom one and it asked to store it some place if I recall correctly.
also should I just delete the old installation?

I work on Linux.
The folder called "MuseScore 2" (Into the Documents folder), has the folder "SoundFont".
You just have to copy it to your new location.

It's right nextto your Scores folder, indeed, normally in MuseScore2, under your home or documents folder. Or just see Edit / Preferences to find the exact location. Be careful notto getco fused and use the private read-only folder in MuseScore's own installation folder.
And we recommend keeping 2.3.2 if you have many existing scores, in case they come out different enough in 3.0 that you want to keep using 2.3.2 for those.
