Unable to Open Saved Sheet Music on Cloud

• Apr 28, 2025 - 05:09

I saved my sheet music to the cloud, but when I try to open it again, I get the message: 'This score could not be opened, this score is invalid.' I really need help and would like to recover my work, please!

5. If you find something interesting, copy that file to another location and open from that new location

Message for other volunteers:
If you see complaints about the message
"This score is invalid", the text of this error is unique and cloud-related. For some reason, the file was not uploaded to the cloud, but is still in the cloud_scores folder.
Use the instructions above (or rewrite as you think is correct in terms of convenience, clarity, English language) so that the user can open the saved project file.
As far as I remember, there has been an issue on github for a long time about this problem.
