Methods to fix Elden Ring’s white screen bug

While the white screen bug can be bothersome to face for any user, it is easily fixable. The following are a list of methods that might fix this issue within Elden Ring.

Method 1: Updating the graphics driver

A lot of issues can cause this bug, and not having an up-to-date graphics driver can be one of them. Thus, users are advised to check their graphics driver for the latest version and install it if needed.

Method 2: Deleting temporary files

Sometimes, temporary files can cause issues in games and are something that can be deleted with ease. Deleting temp files is fairly simple. It can be located by writing "%temp%" in the Run console (Windows button + R) on Windows.

Once the temporary files folder opens up, select every single file in the folder and delete it. Not only will this process speed up the system, but it could also potentially fix the error.

To fix this, all users have to do is open Steam and look for the game in the library. From there, they have to right-click on it and go into the 'Properties' menu.
