Hi @carpONE, thanks for filing this. It looks like the blank screen can happen when MQTTX writes its database to a non-default %AppData% location but then tries to read it from the default path on C:. In issue #1934, copying mqttx.db from the real %AppData%\MQTTX folder to C:\Users<you>\AppData\Roaming\MQTTX\mqttx.db immediately fixed the blank screen. Could you check whether your %AppData% is redirected and, if so, try copying the DB file as above?

Hi, if no more issues, I will close it. Thanks for using it.

After I copy mqttx.db from the real %AppData%\MQTTX folder to C: \Users\AppData\Roaming\MQTTX\mqttx.db, opening it does solve the blank problem, but after setting the language to Chinese, reopening it will reset the settings back to the default state

I think this is a problem, I think we should follow the real AppData
