I have mission control hot corners set up to display all open programmes (via mission control).
After updating to Mojave, when I hit mission control on the keyboard or go to my hot corner, all my windows just disappear and I am left with a blank desktop image. I used to see tiled windows and I could switch between open applications.
Any suggestions? Is this a bug?

Hi. No, I am not using any apps. I am using the Mission Control section of System Preferences.I have a different hot corner for "desktop".
As I mentioned before, I get a blank desktop graphic, and not/not my actual desktop with other icons for saved files.....

For some reason updating to Mojave turns off Mission Control. To turn it back on, go to System Preferences, Mission Control and make sure the Dashboard feature is turned to "As Space" . The default is now "Off", but turning on "As Space" returns it to the original Mission Control. Hope this helps!
I am having this problem too.
I use a flat colour wallpaper, so I could see that the desktop wasn't completely blank, but all open windows reduced in size to one pixel. I have attached an image, so hopefully you can see this.
The cause seems to be the "Group windows by application" option. If I check it, it is fine (although I don't want this particular option", but if this is unchecked, I get what you see in the image above.
Toggling the Dashboard option between Off/As Space/As Overlay has no effect on this issue for me.
Hopefully, this might help out some of you.
One last thing is that I access Mission Control via the scroll-wheel button of a Logitech Mouse, but the behaviour is the same when I use F3.
Needed to be certain which key you were hitting. What you described is what happens when you set one of the Hot Corners to "Desktop". Normally "Show Desktop" is assigned to the "F11" key. Are you using an app to reassign keyboard shortcuts?
I had the same issue....I had to change the Dashboard to: As Overlay
Hopefully this helps!
A couple things you can try. Test in a different user account.
Test while in Safe Mode.

Post back.
What happens when you press the "F3" function key?
As noted above, "when I hit mission control on the keyboard" (i.e. F3) I get the same problem.
Upgrading to Mojave does not turn off Mission Control. However, the Dashboard defaults to off. The Dashboard and Mission Control are two different things.
