    Usually a blank screen at startup indicates an error when attempting to compile or initialize editor code, perhaps in a custom editor plugin you're using. Check out your log file after running Unity to look for a cause. Searching the file for the word "error" will likely lead you to the problem(s).

    goto user\user\AppData\Roaming\Unity\Packages\node_modules\unity-editor-home then copy all files then go back to file node_modules and paste all files there and then delete unity-editor-home.

    I had this issue but my problem was regarding proxies. See this thread and my reply for more details: https://forum.unity.com/threads/usi...nity-hub-failed-to-open.1187914/#post-7810242

    SOLUTION:
    create a .bat file with these lines as its content:
    @echo off
    set HTTP_PROXY=
    set HTTPS_PROXY=
    setx UNITY_NOPROXY localhost,127.0.0.1
    start "" "C:\Program Files\Unity Hub\Unity Hub.exe"

    MAKE SURE THE PATH POINTS TO WHERE UNITY HUB IS ON YOUR OWN MACHINE
    Hopefully this helps!

    Please provide your editor log file as was mentioned earlier.

    In my case, I set Unity Hub.exe to "open with administrative privileges".

    From then on, I got a black screen.

    I removed that option and everything went back to normal.

    For what it's worth.

    I have a made by unity on startup and the games music but it then just goes straight to a black screen and after about 20-30 completely crashes and closes the program. Spent all day watching countless YouTube videos but still no success opening the project. Any ideas would be very much appreciated it’s so so frustrating…… cheers
