Project
To produce the issue, one must have a laptop sized/single monitor setup.
The mixer is not viewable. When I press F10, the mixer does not open. This is not as much an issue when I am working on two monitors, but when I am in public and with only my laptop screen I cannot work the mixer. I understand that it is still work in progress as it is built from the ground up in Musescore 4, but I do not have this issue in Musescore 3.6.
Comments
Presumably Musescore is still trying to open the mixer on your other monitor. Use View / Restore the default layout to reset that. If that does not do it, try Help / Revert to factory settings.
In the future, if you have questions about how to use MuseScore, please use the Support forum.

I've had the same problem of Musescore losing track of an undocked Mixer. In my case, my monitor configuration was unchanged. View / Restore does not work. Help / Revert to factory settings is brutal solution. If Musescore loses track of an undocked window it is a bug.
Please let us know if you find precise steps to reproduce the problem. I have never encountered a situation where the restore default layout fails, and the only cases I have found where MuseScore "loses track" of the mxier were due to user (ie, my own) error of changing resolution or otherwise moving a window off screen.
It is no longer happening. My guess is "Revert to factory settings" resolved whatever the problem was.
If it recurs I'll raise a bug report with all the details.
