Your problem seems to be that LilyPond has stopped generating the 
point-and-clicks entries in the pdf. Check out
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.21/Documentation/usage/configuring-the-system-for-point-and-click#enabling-point-and-click


The upgrade might have overwritten your sumatrapdfrestrict.ini file.
Its white list for link protocols may no longer have a 'textedit' entry.
But that wouldn't stop you being able to read the indications.


Caveat:  I am not running the latest Sumatra version.
