Other type of issue
Description with steps to reproduce
Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS, Arch.: x86_64, MuseScore Studio version (64-bit): 4.5.2-251141401, revision: github-musescore-musescore-ac9d3bc
As a user, playing back mscz files,
whilst the application runs (without apparent failure from the user's persepctive),
crashpad_handle processes will be spawned and they consume the CPU for very long periods.
Can a configuration option be introduced to stop the Crash Reporting ?
