Musescore keeps crashing and changing my time signature
Hello! I have a score for string orchestra that keeps crashing and changing my 3/4 time signature to 4/4, so every measure now has a beat of rest on the 4th beat. How do I reverse the time signature so that it removes the extra beat from every measure? Thanks!

You (?) removed the time signature from the score (rather than just not showing it via staff properties)), so in absence of any time sig MuseScore assumes 4/4 and as such added those extra beats.
Assigning (back) a 3/4 now messes up the entire score, as it just redistributes all the existing notes and rests on now shorter measures, it does not get rig of those extra beats.
I don't see any crashes though.
I see traces inside the score that indicate it to have been imported from MuseScore 1.x, am I right on this?
Do you still have the 1.x version of it?

I get here a crash (with 3.4.2) by doing:
1) Select first measure top staff (Violins 1)
2) Click time signature 3/4 in palette
3) Undo
4) Click time signature 4/4 in palette
Result: crash
But, I cannot reproduce with 9bb6d4a
So, it's fixed somewhere (I didn't check why and where)

Adding a 3/4 timesig doesn't help fixing this score though
Neither does adding any other time sig, that score is very corrupt inside.

The approach was not to fix anything with the time signatures. It was to make it clear that the crash, in this scenario, will not happen again in the future 3.5.
Another thing: would the Nightlies (Windows) display be broken again, as it happened several days ago - between April 7th and April 14th?
Now, the last nightly available dates back to April 15th.

Yes, the process for uploading Windows nightlies is currently broken (again).
They are being build though and available on AppVeyor, the latest at https://ci.appveyor.com/project/MuseScore/musescore/builds/32306049/art…

Got it. Thanks. And still no crash with this file in the scenario outlined above.

Give us a couple days to find a new method to break it ;-)

I was working on the score when suddenly the whole program crashed, and when I opened it back up, the entire piece had the extra beat in a 4/4 time signature. I definitely set the time signature as 3/4 when I first created it, thought I suppose it did not show up on the score. I may have started the score on Musescore 1 or 2 and recently transferred it to Musescore 2 or 3.
So there is no way of altering the time signature so it removes the extra beat altogether?

Not automatically, no.
You could Ctrl-delete those beats one by one and then apply the 3/4 signature afterwards again.
