The duplets in my musescore are wrong value and there are unnecessary rests in a measure.

The "unnecessary rests" sounds like something that just happened to me. I have a score that alternates between 5/4 and 4/4 time every two measures. Measure 12 (a 4/4 measure immediately preceding a 5/4 measure) is corrupted. This measure starts with two eighth notes followed by a dotted half note, which should take up the whole measure. But MuseScore insisted on adding a sixteenth-note rest at the end. I backtracked and tried entering the measure again two or three times, with the same result, so then I gave up and moved on. I saved the file, but when I went to reopen it MuseScore reported it was corrupted, as the measure has that extra sixteenth note rest. So the scan before opening catches the error.

After reopening, I tried deleting the unwanted rest, but the program simply moved it to the next measure, corrupting that one instead. So I backed out the change.

Score is attached.

That score indeed is corrupt,
Measure 12, Staff 1 incomplete. Expected: 5/4; Found: 85/64
you need to fix the corruption before doing anything else to it
Somehow you applied 'local time signatures' (like you hold Shift while applying it), apparently without any need.

Fixed score attached. It has nothing to do with duplets and as such seems entirely unrelated to the OP's issue
