The app was working fine but in the last couple of days I haven't used it.
The strange behaviour today started with MuseScore playing pieces very slowly. When I restarted windows windows started applying updates. After the restart, MuseScore never started again.

Found this in the logs

Managed to make it work by removing and adding windows updates, updating some drivers that got screwed up in the process. Had to re-install MuseScore as well, but hey, it works now. Crazy. Closed it.
