A solution that works for me and does not require computer restart:
1. Hit `Win+R` to open a console prompt.
2. Kill all processes that have teams in their name with this command:taskkill /IM "teams*" /F
3. Launch Teams.

castrazozza Same problem, but quick workaround. If I go to Outlook and click a link to Join Teams Meeting, then my Teams works just fine. Then I cancel joining that meeting and go about my business.
No idea what causes the blank black screen in the first place, it happens maybe once or twice a day for me.

gregbosma I've noticed this blank screen happens a lot immediately after starting Snipping Tool.
- jlclark19May 05, 2021Copper ContributorWow! That's a great observation, and I just realized that's what happened to me too. If only the microsoft developers knew about this.
