if the above comment didn't solve your problem. Here is some detailed troubleshooting instructions.
To troubleshoot.
check for errors in error logs
add $Configuration['Debug'] = true;to your /conf/config.php file.
if after adding $Configuration['Debug'] = true; to your conf/config.php and you see no errors.if you get a blank screen with no errors showing you can change your index.php in your root folder.
change line in index.php
from
ini_set('display_errors', 0);to
ini_set('display_errors', 1);if you see an error number and an error - post the error on the forum if you don't know how to correct it.
when posting problems
post error message or problem.
state whether you upgraded
your operating system
your version of phpif you are not actively debugging a problem and you changed display errors in index.php make sure you change it back
to
ini_set('display_errors', 0);if you are not actively debugging a problem , make sure you turn off debugging in conf/config.php
$Configuration['Debug'] = false; to your /conf/config.php file.see FAQ http://vanillaforums.org/discussion/comment/233540/#Comment_233540 for additional help.
Also your problem could be with compile folder....
Delete .ini files in cache
make sure \cache\Smarty\compile folder permissions and ownership is writable by your web server process.

Please add
$Configuration['Debug'] = true;to your /conf/config.php. After that you will not see a blank page any more when you get an error, but you will see an error message.Please tell us that error message and we might be able to help.
Hey, thank you.
Debug Modus is on, but i did not get any error message.
Only a White window when i activate any theme
That sounds weird. Do you have a fresh install and now you are trying to change from default theme (+Baseline) to another (e.g. Baseline)?
Or does it only happen with some special themes?
If it is all standard, then please try to re-upload all files you get in this zip: https://vanillaforums.org/addon/vanilla-core
Maybe the first upload wasn't complete.
