I have tried several times to update the software. The download is only 110 MB, but it starts downloading excruciatingly slow and eventually gets to "Update Error!".

It must be something with your download server. I can download other software just fine. Even ones a with a lot larger file size.

Since I cannot update it, I don't know what version it is trying to update to. My current version is 3.2.3.7635

We refer to the Great Wall as the historical relics dated from Zhou Dynasty, not that firewall.

But directly download from musescore.org is very fast. I don't know but does the popup window use GitHub link rather than musescore.org link to download? Downloading anything from GitHub is considerably slow.

We're indeed using GitHub for those downloads IIRC, and for both, the update and on musescore.org, because it is faster that OSUOSL (And yes, I know what the Great Wall is ;-))

You must be connecting to a different server form wherever you live. Extremely slow here. I have a 12 MB connection but it took about 15 minutes to download the update file.

Everything else from other sources download super fast. Even much larger files.
