UpWork Desktop App Showing Black Screen on Windows 7

Hi there,I just downloaded the latest version of the UpWork Desktop app and installed it on Windows 7 Pro 32-bit (SP1). After installation the screen of the UpWork App came up in black screen.

 

The system tray icon is there but when I click anywhere e.g Open Messages, Settings, Open Time Tracker etc It shows black screen.I also tried uninstallation, restarting the laptop and installing a fresh copy again but it still showed the same error. The graphic drivers are installed and up to date.

 

Please find the attachments for details.

Hi Oliver Von,

 

Could you please try reinstalling the app to see if that resolves the issue?


If that doesn't work, please try this:

  • Uninstall Upwork Desktop App
  • Remove 'Upwork' directory C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Upwork
  • Start the app again

 

Let us know if this didn't help so that we can assist you further.


Thank you.
