Among other things, microwave oven fuses can blow from...old age (perhaps assisted by poor connectivity with the fuse holder causing undue heating), from accumulated crud or maladjustment causing the door safety switch to misbehave and operate its contacts out of order, or from a short in the magnetron or failure of the high voltage power supply.
If the oven works after replacing the fuse, the third option is presumably not the cause.
