I have been playing fallout 4 and have noticed a very bad glitch making it hard to enjoy the game.The glitch is that whenever I try to pick a lock all i see is a white screen i have tried to fix this by reseting my game but nothing is working please help.

Might try uninstalling and reinstalling it that's the only thing I could think of, sounds pretty serious

How to Fix Invisible Lockpicking Bug

Some users are https://www.reddit.com/r/fo4/comments/3s5fy9/bug_invisible_lockpicking/ where they cannot see the lock pick at all. Lock picking is key to Fallout 4 so this is a major problem.

Some users are http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=551069501&tscn=1447077828:

• Open Fallout4Prefs.ini in your documents (C:\Users\[name]\Documents\My Games\Fallout4\) and under [Display] change:
  
  iSize W=XXXX iSize H=YYYY to
  iSize W=XXXX-1 iSize H=YYYY-
• Their example:
• 
  iSize W=1920 iSize H=1080
• 
  would be changed to
• 
  iSize W=1919 iSize H= 1079.

After that, you’ll want to do the same with the Fallout4Prefs.ini that’s located where you installed Steam. You’ll find it in steamapps\common\Fallout 4\Fallout 4.

ALWAYS make backups of your files before changing them
