Well I downloaded the s/w. Now how do you install an .MSI ?? No help from the site, after all, Window users kinda expect an EXE.
Thanks for any info on this.
Win 10, 64 bit, love my Lenovo T420, BIAB 2019 (613), RB 2019 (2)
Short term memory is getting shorter.

MSI is an installer package file format used by Windows. Its name comes from the program's original title, Microsoft Installer, which has since changed to Windows Installer. MSI files are used for installation, storage, and removal of programs
Use any unzip file to open this compressed file format. I would suspect win 7 would open it otherwise, WinRAR or UnZip or 7-zip. Then run the exe.

how do you install an .MSI ?? You right-click the *.msi and click on "Run as Administrator". Easy-peasy!

You don't have to unzip an MSI file. Just double click on it and it will run just like an EXE file.

FWIW: I've been using the v2 beta version of Musescore for awhile, and love it. Much improved over v1. I recommend giving it a try.

Good information but it's in the wrong forum. MuseScore has nothing to do with Biab. There's already a discussion about this in the Off Topic forum here: http://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=288462#Post288462Bob
Biab/RB latest build, Win 11 Pro, Ryzen 5 5600 G, 512 Gig SSD, 16 Gigs Ram, Steinberg UR22 MkII, Roland Sonic Cell, Kurzweil PC3, Hammond SK1, Korg PA3XPro, Garritan JABB, Hypercanvas, Sampletank 3, more.

Bob,
I do not know.
Been using the last few years only.
Primarily for file conversion.
Been the "Cats Pajamas".
The link was interesting, albeit still have to learn more
about PG goodies and Music, and Cakewalk goodies and music, etc.., etc.

I googled it and found that they're not the same. That's a good thing!

FWIW, if you google "musescore 2.0 review" you'll see positive reviews from SourceForge.net, cnet.com and macupdate.com.
I haven't tried it yet but I thought I'd pass this along.

It also has my endorsement.  I hooked up my midi keyboard and started playing and it notated perfectly as I played. The incredible part of that is I don't play the keys...
