Before venturing into more complex solutions, let's clear the temporary files on your computer. This can free up disk space and eliminate potentially corrupted files that might be hindering Roblox.

Here is how to do it:

  1. Open the Windows search bar.
  2. Type %temp% and press Enter.
  3. A folder filled with temporary files will open.
  4. Press Ctrl + A to select all files.
  5. Press Delete and confirm the deletion.
  6. Empty the Recycle Bin to permanently remove the files.

Once your digital battlefield is clear, try launching Roblox again. If the white screen persists, move on to the next solution.

The next step is to update your graphic card drivers. Outdated graphics drivers can sometimes lead to graphical glitches like the white screen. Here's how to update them, but remember the steps may differ slightly depending on your graphics card manufacturer:

  1. Identify your graphics card: Right-click on your desktop and select "Display settings." Click on "Advanced display settings" and then "Display adapter properties." This will show you your graphics card information.
  2. Visit the manufacturer's website: Head to the website of your graphics card manufacturer (e.g., Nvidia, AMD, Intel).
  3. Download the latest drivers: Locate the driver download section and search for your specific graphics card model. Download the latest compatible driver version.
  4. Install the update: Run the downloaded installer and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the update.

Once your graphics drivers are updated, restart your computer and try launching Roblox again. If the white screen remains, continue to the next solution.

If the previous solutions haven't banished the white screen, it's time to consider a more drastic measure: reinstalling Roblox. This will refresh all game files, potentially replacing any corrupted or outdated ones that might be causing the issue.
