Upgrading from Musescore to Musescore Pro.
I'm interested in upgrading from Musescore 3.6.2 (fee) to Musescore Pro to take advantage of further options.
If I do this, will the music already in Musecore 3 be compatible with Musescore Pro? Will I still be able to play, print and edit exiting scores? Or will I have to transcribe them all over again?
I'd welcome the advice, as until find an answer I am holding off subscribing.

There is no MuseScore Pro. You can download the free and free software from the official page: https://musescore.org/en/download and you don't need to uninstall the previous version.
Mu4 opens files generated with 3.6.2, not vice versa.
The MuseScore desktop scorewriting software has no "Pro" version. Your MuseScore 3 (version 3.6.2) is full featured.
However, a major release - MuseScore 4 - was announced back in December:
https://musescore.org/en/4.0
The latest release of MuseScore 4 (version 4.0.2) can be found here:
https://musescore.org/en/download
As with MuseScore 3, MuseScore 4 is free and requires no "Pro" account to unlock additional features.
"Pro" refers to a 'subscription'.
A Pro subscription is not relevant here at musescore.org.
A Pro subscription is needed at musescore.com if you wish to download scores that have copyright protection.
