Blank browser screen on launch

Hello everyone!

I just installed n8n for the first time following a slew of tutorials and everything appears fine. When I launch n8n via powershell with or without permissions it will launch fine, and whether I press O or locally type localhost into browser, it pops up as running normally with no error messages but the screen is blank. I’ve never been given the prompt to log in, and I’ve tried clearing cache, and using a different web browser too. This is my first impression so I’m hoping someone can help me, as it seems a very common problem… I’m running locally, have little interest in docker, and have “some” technical knowledge. Thanks!
