Description

UI bug (incorrect info or interface appearance)

The Format/load style loads from the correct subdirectory.

The Format/save style displays the musescore4 directory and adds Styles as a file name, rather than using it as a subdirectory name.

See above.

Research direction

Reproduce the Format/save style behavior on Ubuntu 22.04 and compare it with Format/load style, using the reported MuseScore versions as context. Done means saving a style uses the musescore4/Styles subdirectory correctly instead of displaying musescore4 as the folder and Styles as a filename.
