Description
Issue type
Crash or freeze
Description with steps to reproduce
I had to replace the hard drive on my computer. After reinstalling MuseScore and MuseHub, I had one particular file which would cause the program to shut down when I tried to save to cloud or export as an audio file. After updating to version 4.6 the save to cloud seems to be working, but exporting an audio file still causes a crash, sometimes almost right away, other times part way through the export.
I don't know how to do screen recordings, crash logs or diagnostic files. I will attach the score causing the problem.
Supporting files, videos and screenshots
Here is the score/ file causing the problem. I tried to save it as a zip file, but the file (folder?) wouldn't upload, so here are the contents?
In which versions of MuseScore Studio is this issue present?
4.6

Additional context
I'm sorry, but I don't have time t o look through 136 pages of reported issues, and since this is a new issue with and existing file that didn't change since the new hard drive install, I don't see a reason too. Besides, I was advised to report this by someone on the forum - mercuree
