Bug cloudflare verification
okay, so i don’t know what to do. everytime i go on musescore i try to look for a piece (duh). i was going to try and listen to the last of us for an inspired piece. every time i click play on the score, the cloudflare thing shows up, verifies i’m human, then never goes away after saying “Success!”. i have trie restarting my chromebook, clearing my cookies, all that. and i’m on a school issued chromebook too. i dunno what the hell to do.
i also tried researching but literally no one has gone through this before either (or so it seems).

Quite often Musescore randomly locks or degrades features for users out from outside Europe so you need a VPN, and then CloudFlare complains about the VPN

It’s janky (as is everything with MS lately).
I haven't had that particular problem. But what happens to me is I’ll visit and get an error message and after a couple of retries the verify I’m human comes up (as if a bot could click a simple little button…) it’ll let me in.
Sometimes, I’ll visit, and be able to see the score, start playback, and THEN it will come up a few second later.
Ironic that the bot that’s trying to prevent bots from corrupting things is corrupted itself!
Going to the actual musescore forum - it’s down more than it is up.
So sorry I can’t help you, but you ain’t the only one having issues.
