Windows + E<\/code> to launch the File Explorer and go to:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nProgram file (x86)\/Steam\/steamapps\/common\/Monster Hunter World<\/em><\/p>\n\n- Open the graphics_option<\/em>\u00a0file in Notepad.<\/li>\n
- After that, head to ScreenMode=Fullscreen<\/em> and change it to ScreenMode=Borderless.<\/em><\/li>\n
- Save the file and restart the game.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
You should also check the game\u2019s resolution and confirm that it matches what your computer can handle.<\/p>\n
For example, your 1280×720 monitor will fail to load a 3840×2160 resolution image. So, check the file to confirm and make the necessary changes.<\/p>\n
If you\u2019re unsure what your monitor can support, head to your display settings page and check for your recommended resolution.<\/p>\n
Right-click your Desktop and click on Display Settings. Then, check for your recommended display resolution.<\/p>\n

\nFix 3: Add Monster Hunter: World to your security program\u2019s exclusions list<\/h3>\n
Your antivirus program could be the cause of the problem. It might be blocking the game\u2019s startup process, causing the screen to go blank.<\/p>\n
Resolving this problem is straightforward: head to your antivirus settings and add Monster Hunter\u2019s folder as an exclusion.<\/p>\n
In some programs, you\u2019ll have to add the game to the whitelist or as an exemption.<\/p>\n
Here\u2019s the process for Windows Security:<\/p>\n
\n- Open the Start menu, search for Virus & Threat Protection<\/em>, and open it.<\/li>\n
- Click on Manage Settings<\/em> when the page opens.<\/li>\n
- Scroll down to the Exclusions section and click on Add or remove exclusion<\/em>s.<\/li>\n
- Next, click the Add an exclusion<\/em>\u00a0button and select Folder<\/em> from the menu.<\/li>\n
- Navigate to Monster Hunter: World\u2019s installation folder, click on it, then click on the Select Folder<\/em> button.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
If you use a third-party antivirus, head to its website to check how to add a folder as an exclusion.<\/p>\n
Fix 4: Get rid of mods<\/h3>\n
While game mods allow you to add extra features and improve gameplay, they often come at a cost. If the blank screen problem started appearing after you recently installed a mod, consider removing that mod.<\/p>\n
Also, if you\u2019ve been using some mods for a while, remove them and check for the problem. As it turns out, old mods may crash the game the game after a while, especially after major updates.<\/p>\n
Fix 5: Remove temporary files.<\/h3>\n
Windows services and third-party applications create files they use temporarily and store them in the temp folder. Monster Hunter: World also creates this type of file.<\/p>\n
Temporary files can corrupt and cause issues like the game\u2019s launch failure. The files can also build up to the point that they begin to cause storage space issues, which can affect the game.<\/p>\n
Try emptying the Temp folder and check if the game launches without issues.<\/p>\n
Follow these steps:<\/p>\n
\n- On your taskbar, right-click Start and select Run. Tap the Windows + R keyboard combo to open the Run dialog box.<\/li>\n
- When the Run box pops up on the left side of the screen, enter %TEMP%<\/em>\u00a0into the text box and click OK<\/em>.<\/li>\n
- The Temp folder will now open.<\/li>\n
- Next, select all the folder’s contents by hitting the
Ctrl + A<\/code> keyboard shortcut.<\/li>\n- Now, tap the
Shift + Del<\/code> keyboard buttons together and Select Yes<\/em> in the confirmation dialog to delete the files permanently.<\/li>\n- Launch Monster Hunter: World to check for the startup problem.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Remove temporary files via Settings.<\/strong><\/p>\nYou can also clear out temporary files by going through the Settings application. Open Settings.<\/p>\n
Once the Settings page opens, go to System > Storage<\/em> and click on Temporary Files<\/em> under the Storage<\/em> page.<\/p>\nAllow Windows to calculate your temporary files, then select those you want to delete before clicking the Remove<\/em> button.<\/p>\nUse Auslogics BoostSpeed to clear temporary files.<\/strong><\/p>\n\r\n\tPRO TIP<\/div>\r\n While both methods work for clearing junk files, you must perform the operations manually. However, you won\u2019t go through that stress or worry about temp files again if you use Auslogics BoostSpeed.<\/a> \nThe program scans to find and remove junk files and problematic registry keys. This ensures your hard drive space isn\u2019t cluttered with useless files and that the system registry can perform optimally.<\/p>\n
The application also has multiple other tools that help you optimize your PC and secure your hard drive against spyware.<\/div>\r\n

\nFix 6: Update your graphics card driver<\/h3>\n
Your graphics card driver handles the display on your PC and the game. A blank screen issue could be a symptom of an outdated, corrupt, or stuck driver.<\/p>\n
Installing the latest version of the graphics card driver will resolve your problem.<\/p>\n
There are different ways to update a driver<\/a>. You can manually download it from the card\u2019s manufacturer\u2019s website, Windows Update, or a third-party driver-updating tool.<\/p>\nYou must download the version for your card to access the device’s manufacturer’s website.<\/p>\n
So, enter the appropriate search parameters and ensure the driver you\u2019re installing is designed for your operating system.<\/p>\n
\r\n \r\n ![\"Download]()
\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\nTo use Windows Update, search for Windows Update in the Start menu and launch the client. Click on Check for Updates and install all your pending updates.<\/p>\n
Next, click on View All Optional Updates, expand the Drivers section, and select your graphics card driver.<\/p>\n
\r\n \r\n ![\"Click]()
\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\nIn some cases, Windows Update may not provide the latest update for your graphics card driver.<\/p>\n
You may also find it challenging to search Nvidia\u2019s or AMD\u2019s websites for the driver. To make things much easier, use a driver-updating tool such as Auslogics Driver Updater<\/a>.<\/p>\nThe tool helps you search for problematic drivers and automatically updates them. Its full version can download and install multiple drivers updates at once, and it\u2019s compatible with Windows 7, 8, 10, and 11.<\/p>\n

\nFix 7: Run Monster Hunter: World as an administrator<\/h3>\n
Monster Hunter: World may need access to restricted system resources to launch. By running it as an administrator, you can grant it permission to use these resources.<\/p>\n
To run the game as an administrator, right-click on its shortcut and click on Properties.<\/p>\n
Then go to the Compatibility tab of the Properties dialog and check the \u201cRun this program as an administrator\u201d box. Click on OK.<\/p>\n
If you can\u2019t find the game\u2019s shortcut, you can find its main executable file by using the Steam app.<\/p>\n
Open Steam, right-click on Monster Hunter: World, and click on Properties. Go to the Local Files tab and click on the Browse button. Now, locate the game\u2019s executable file, right-click it, and select Properties.<\/p>\n
