If I understand this correctly, this issue concerns not only Windows but all platforms.
"Frequency" field refers to a number of reports seen on this issue recently, so I change it to "once".
This seems to be an unimplemented text editing feature rather than a bug. MuseScore to date has almost no text editing capability so this should actually be a suggestion and in that case is probably a duplicate of an existing request for text editing capabilities such as #76721: External text editor.
