What to Do

Please try each step below, one at a time, in order. If one solution doesn't work, move on to the next!

To Minimize Future Problems

Always ensure that all programs are closed on your computer before installing or updating Roblox.

1. Run as an administrator

It’s possible that your Roblox launcher doesn’t have admin access to your system to run it properly. In that scenario, the game launcher won’t gonna launch easily as the system does not allow it. To do so:

2. Delete Roblox AppData Folder

Sometimes a corrupted or missing app data folder of the game may start conflicting with the game itself. So, it’s better to remove the app data folder on your computer to refresh it.

3. Ensure Proxy Server of LAN is Disabled

If the Proxy server is enabled for some reason on your computer for the LAN Settings then the chances are high enough that you may experience issues with the Roblox launching or connecting to the server. So, disabling the proxy server of LAN is required. To do so:

4. Flush DNS Server

Maybe the IP configuration or DNS server has become corrupted for some reason on your computer. In that case, your system may not be able to connect to the game servers or online streaming services. It’s better to flush the DNS server completely to regain the IP configuration properly. To do this:

5. Check Roblox Server Status

If none of the above methods worked for you, try checking the official Roblox Server Status page whether there is any technical issue happening or not. If there is an issue with the service that means you’ll have to wait for a couple of hours until the problem has been resolved by developers.

6. Power Cycle Your Router

Coming to the networking device, if you’re using the wired (ethernet) connection on your PC, make sure to switch to the wireless (Wi-Fi) network to check for the issue. Otherwise, if you’re only using Wi-Fi then try performing the power cycle of your router. To do that:

7. Try Another Browser

If in case, you’re using a web browser on the computer to access and play Roblox games then make sure to try checking the same on a different web browser. Sometimes it can also possible that the existing web browser has some issues with the cache data, glitch, extension issues, issues with browsing history, etc.
