Help Please - Transparent background showing as white since upgrading to 21.1.2

I hope someone can help me.  I upgraded to 21.1.2 this evening and now no matter what I do, I always have a white screen when I create a document even when creating a document with a transparent background.  When I try to type, draw with a brush, etc., nothing shows up on my screen, only the white.  If I type something in black, I can see the type layer in the layers panel but the area I am working in is still white.  I have not changed any settings nor any of the defaults, only upgraded to the new version.

Also, if I open a picture to edit and add a layer, it automatically turns the working space white and even if I delete the layer, my working space stays white.  Please see the pictures below.

Thank you so much in advance for any assistance you can provide!
