Good file is corrupted as soon as it is "saved as"
I have a file that opens and plays fine, but when I "save as" it becomes corrupted and in "details" it says it is expecting 3/4 time (which is correct) but finds 4/4 time. If I then put in a 3/4 time signature it messes up the score.
I can copy the file and the copy works fine, but if I make any change to it and then save it, it too becomes corrupted in the same way.
Any thoughts on why this is happening?

It works by beginning to drag and drop a 3/4 time sig in the third measure, then drag and drop a 2/4 time sig for the two first measures (their real duration): 1River Valley Plattler-1.mscz
And the file with the correct clef for the guitar (treble 8vb): 2River Valley Plattler-1.mscz
This file is probably imported from an other format?
I think this file is corrupt already - it has no visible time signature but contains measures of inconsistent lengths. I guess there was a bug in 1.3 that could sometimes create files like this. The corruption is not discovered until after a save and reload, but it was there all along if my read of the file is correct.
The solution mentioned above does look like the way to go - add 3/4 to measure 3, then 2/4 to measure 1.
Thank you so much! This forum is unbelievable! I have never had a problem that someone doesn't find a solution to, usually within a few minutes of posting my issue. And thanks for not only telling me how to fix it, but then sending me a corrected version.
