Hello,
Since 2 days there is a message when I open Musescore.org :
"Erreur de chargement : Impossible de lire le fichier :/data/My_First_Score.msc : Type inconnu".

Thats not all :
impossible to use the "play" button (remains frozen), or the keyboard shortcut.

Thank you for your help.
Cordially,

Severity S1 - Blocker ⇒ S3 - Major
Status active ⇒ by design

You're not opening musescore.org (this site) but the MuseScore program on your computer (Windows, I guess?)
That tries to open a builtin file (filename starting with a ":") which does not exist, the last letter of the name is missing, " :/data/My_First_Score.msc" vs " :/data/My_First_Score.mscx" to make it an existing file, hence that error message.
Fix that filename in Edit > Preferences > General or revert to factory settings

Not a blocker, you can open any other file
Not a bug, but a bad configuration, probably accidentally change that setting
