Which version of MuseScore exactly? What operating system? Sample score?
In reply to Which version of MuseScore… by Jojo-Schmitz
Version 4.2.0.233521124
Revision eb8d33c
Windows 11 Home
Version 23H2
OS version 22631.3007
It happened when I tried to change the tempo and hit the ENTER key by mistake. MS then stopped responding. I waited for at least five minutes before I gave up. I wasn't able to save the file so I rewrote the score and saved it without making the same mistake again.

It happens to me every time I make the same mistake.
I'll try to reinstall MS.
Thanks anyway!

Restalling almost never helps, using Help > Revert to factory setting much more often

Reinstalling didn't help. Neither did Revert to factory setting.

I don't see a tempo mark in this score. Can you give the exact steps for the score you attached?
In reply to I don't see a tempo mark in… by krasko78
OK, I've added a tempo text 120 to the score. Now I want to change the tempo to 124, so I place the cursor next to the "0" and change it to a "4". So far so good. When I hit esc the tempo is changed. But if I accidently hit ENTER instead of esc, MuseScore stops responding. The same problem occurs when I try to make changes to the composer or to the song title.
I have attached another file "Skänklåt från Dala-Järna". When I try to mark the song title, MS stops responding.
The problems occured after the latest MS4.0 update. Please note that "En liten konstnär" is written after the latest update and "Skänklåt från Dala-Järna" before the latest update.

I have a couple of hundreds MS scores written i MS2, MS3 and MS4. I have opened several MS2 and MS3 files with MS4 and all files I have opened experience the same problem. This in very annoying.

Hi, it's me again.
There is no problem if opening MS2 or MS3 scores with MS3.

I still can't reproduce.

I can't reproduce it either. I have the exact same version of MuseScore as yours.

I don't understand! This must be one of the weirdest days in my life and I have lived for 78 years so far! I got an idea....there is a function in Windows that allowes you to record the screen. My intetion was to visualize the problem. When I record the screen, MS behaves that it's supposed to. But when I stop recording the problem is back. I just don't understand!

It works just fine on my Win10 laptop.
Ran a compatibility check without result.
Reinstalled 4.2 without MuseHub, but no success.
MS 4.02 worked, so I tried to find an installation file. Did not!
Unfortunately there is no backward compatibility fron MS4 to MS3. Pity, because MS3 works just fine.
The only thing I can think of is that there is a Win background process that conflicts with MS4.2

Older version are all still available.
4.1.1 at https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/releases/tag/v4.1.1,
4.0.2 at https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/releases/tag/v4.0.2
They won't read scores saved with 4.2 though...

OK, thanks a lot!

OK, I've downloaded and installed MS4.0.2. I still have the same problem.
So, my conclusion is that this problem is not MS related. So I still have a few ideas that i might test.
- Windows problem
- Windows update problem
- Bios problem
- HW problem.
I don't think the problem is Windows related because then lots of MS users should share my problem.

At last. The problem is solved. If you change the text marker to the one in the attached fileI, and you press enter instead of esc, MuseScore stop responding. So, reverting back to the "normal" marker solves the issue. Wasn't very easy to figure out.
