MuseScore 4 crashes when opening a file that I was originally working on (saved, then reopened musescore)
I have been working multiple days on this arrangement. At one point, MuseScore became laggy, so I saved, closed, and reopened. Now, whenever I try to open the file, MuseScore 4 crashes – I think the file got corrupted somehow. I would GREATLY appreciate it very very much if this file can be saved/recovered...I attached it below. Thanks so much. I have been working from my Macbook Air, if that helps at all.

Through a series of fumbling steps that I'm not sure I can repeat, I was able to create this file that at least will open in MS4. Good luck.
I extracted your file and got a version that after several tries, opened in MS3. Did a Save As and the result is the attached file.

The development version of 4.0.2 open your score. I saved it and attached it. This opens in 4.0.1
This just happened to me!! I am desperate, I should deliver this arrangement today for a paid job and Musescore simply sent my file to space. I can't believe it, I never should have downloaded this crappy version.
Could someone try to open it please? It would mean a lot!
I am even posting the autosave that won't open too.

Confirmed, it crashes in 4.0.2. Please report on GitHub
The attached ones do open in Mu3(.6.2)

I'm having a similar problem - after I've restarted Musescore, I'm unable to open the following file or it's backup created in 4.0.2. When I try, the Musecore instance appears to open but then disappears without displaying the score. Can my file be recovered? Many thanks, Alistair

Doesn't seem so, even extracting the mscx from the mscz crashes Mu4 and Mu3

Thanks for trying.
it happend to me too! I'm very very desperate. I use musescore for my work and i might have just lost to weeks of work. I try to open the file in musescore 3 but i got a blank page and it shrank the file to only 1kb (while I purposely didn't save it!). I have an older backup version that I also can't open if anybody can help me out that would save my life. sincerely brant
