Can't open files on musescore 3
Hi,
I've just updated from musescore 2 to musescore 3.4,
and whenever I try to open old scores I recieve this message:
Cannot read file C:/Users/Dell/Desktop/???????/??????_????? (1).mscz:
The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.
I have the same issue with a score I've made with musescore 3.4 in another computer.
I'm using Windows 10 64 bit
I'll be glad for any kind of help

Welcome, attach here a sample score.
Rename to a plain ascii characters filename (actually even the directory name here. Or open the file vie File > Open
This bug has been fix in the recent development builds already, so will be fixed in 3.5, see #287955: In Windows Explorer, files with special characters in filepath don't open when double-clicked

see above, don't use those special charters in filenames or directories along the was, or don't use double-click to open those files

Works fine once renamed, of if using File > Open. Also works in latest development build

Your file opens correctly (even if I use an old version).
Try updating the translations.
Save the attachment to your desktop and open it with a double click.

Why should redownloading the program help?
Earlier the error message was about C:/Users/Dell/Desktop/???????/??????_????? (1).mscz and as such about the filename and the directory name. Now the filename is OK, but the directory name probably still is not
