Musescore 3.6.2 crashing on startup in Big Sur 11.6.3

• Feb 2, 2022 - 12:30

I work in a school and we are about to upgrade our Mac OS to Big Sur. I have several teachers using Musescore and it doesn't work on Big Sur. I initially opened it on Big Sur and it worked. Program asked to update to 3.6.2, I agreed to install and now it crashes upon startup every time. I've attached the Mac crash details via text edit.

Please help :)

Or maybe the web access of the startcenter, disable that via the -w command line option or via starting MuseScore per double-click onto a score file (and then disabling the startcenter in preferences)

damn! you're a genius. for anyone else having this issue, here's what I did:
1. downloaded a musescore file from community
2. opened the file in musescore desktop
3. Musescore [dropdown menu] -> Preferences -> unchecked "Show start center" under Program Start
4. Checked "Start with new score" under Program Start

No more crashes. Can open it from a file or from scratch.

Bravo Jojo-Schmitz :)
