When I open the Office app, only a white blank screen is displayed. This occurs on my laptop, and suddenly started showing the white screen on my PC as well. I'm running Windows 11 on my laptop and Windows 10 on my PC. I tried repairing it, then resetting Office, but that did not help. All of the apps work as expected like Word and Excel, only the Office app is exhibiting this behavior.

I'm having the same issue, just a white Screen. And I've already tried all of the standard tricks: I've restarted. re-installed, I uninstalled and re-installed with Office scrubber, did a virus scan, ran as administrator. NOTHING worked.
go directly to one of the office apps from the start menu. It works
Are there any updates on a fix for this issue? My office opens to a white screen. I've also noticed that my system doesn't play a video that used to work fine. I'm concerned that this recent update has created a big problem. Is anyone working on a fix???
Have you tried signing into office.live.com? I've heard some of the features used in the standalone apps aren't in the online version, but it may be a start to getting your files.
Yes! Bravo, Mr Soul. An adequate workaround until the fix comes in. It appears to keep track of my Office files, at least the ones on OneDrive and I can right click and choose the desktop app instead of the browser app for a fully functional tool.
Thanks much.
