Corrupt files: why?
Why do so many corruptions appear in scores? is it something i'm doing wrong or is it software/hardware related? There is a lot to read about workarounds and the like, but how can you prevent this? All this hassle is very frustrating and a waste of time, so prevention could be the best way to act. How?

Thank you Daniel. I have very much respect for the people developping MS and am very grateful: it is great and the sounds are great. In my last 'bad' experience I made an orchestral score (a big one) in 4.0.0 (firstly in 3....), than further on in 4.0.1 and now upgrading to 4.0.2 have many different issues. For example the pizzicati don't work anymore, the sopranos are singing half a beat too late in some parts ... so I went back to 4.0.1 at the moment. The upgrade now tells me that practically the whole Flute 1 is disrupted and I really don't see what the problem is. It's all correct at sight looking at the score. Is there something that corrupts the file when saving?
Ok, I'll find a way around it, but my question was: while putting in a score correctly, why there are so many mistakes afterwards when reloading, and how to prevent this. Also, the note 'your file could get lost' (or so) in the report really scares me off :-)

And I understand that MS4 is still béta AND free so I don't want to complain! At least we know this is still experimental (others where not as honest enough to say this the last 3 years) :-)

Mu4 is not Beta since at least 14-Dec-2022, when 4.0.0, got released. Since last Monday we're on 4.0.2
