Score File Corrupted

• Oct 31, 2024 - 17:16

My GSCE Music cousework file is corrupted and won't open in musescore 3 or 4.

I have tried to unzip it but there is no mscx file in there.

Does anyone have any advice on how I may be able to get this work back?

I'am sorry but in this file there is only the folder 'META-INF' with the file 'container.xml' - and a lot of zero bytes. There is no possibility to repair this work.

Musescore saves backup files in a hidden .mscbackup folder, which is located in the same place as your project file.

There should be a file named .name_of_your_file.mscz~
where "name_of_your_file" is the name of your project file.
Copy it to another location, remove the ~ from the file name and try to open it.
