Prevent Musescore from creating a 'snap' folder in my home directory
Hello. I want to know if it's possible to prevent Musescore from creating the 'snap' folder in the /home/user/ folder in Linux. I hate that I can't erase it. It should be a hidden folder. I hope this has a solution. Thank you in advance.

Welcome.
Sounds like a Linux problem.
From the web:
sudo umount / snap / ubuntu-core / 122
sudo rmdir / snap / ubuntu-core / 122
sudo rm /var/lib/snapd/snaps/ubuntu-core_122.snap
sudo systemctl disable snap-ubuntu \ x2dcore-122.mount
If you want to try ... But perhaps it is more prudent to wait for a better answer.

I can remove the folder. But I lose my Musescore configuration, and Musescore creates it again every time I open the program.
You might consider trying the AppImage version, as it does no such thing.
The auto-creation of the snap folder seems to be an issue with the Snap system and has been a topic for discussion (e.g. https://askubuntu.com/questions/882562/how-can-i-change-or-hide-the-sna….
Also, If you switch to AppImage - and generally - be sure to customize Musescore's default folder preferences so that no other folders are auto-generated without your permission.

I see now that this problem is larger than I thought. Musescore doesn't have the full responsibility. I'll install the Appimage. Thanks.
