We use a plugin to launch things like Roblox Player when you hit the play button. I noticed that this logic was not being activated at all, as if the plugin is being blocked on the machines that could repro this.
Master3395, can you please try using Studio to navigate through the Wiki articles to find one with a video in it (like this Documentation - Roblox Creator Hub) Can you click the play Button in Studio? If it is not even loading, that would imply that your WebKit is blocking ALL plugins.
Interesting. So that explains WHY you canāt launch games, your Studio Browser canāt use Plugins. Now WHY this is happening is still unknown to me. Iām going to see if I can reproduce the effect by fussing with some security settings.
I have dissabled ActiveX in IE, and i can see videos in studio now, but clicking play on games (studio), still redictās me to āDownload Robloxā (note i can play games from chrome, but not roblox studio)
I can play videos on my studio, and didnāt do anything to it, although the video has some weird offset issues, like some ads, when I scroll, the video scrolls in an exaggerated way inside itās little black box, still getting download page
Wellā¦ erm, now itās un-fixed? I was able to play Coreciiās laser tag, but now I canāt play a game someone linked me to, or Coreciiās game either
Iām not sure why this is happening, but weāre working on a more systematic way to deal with some of the issues that are causing this. The fact that you could ever join games from the Studio Browser was never a tested behavior, it was something that kind of happened to work, which is why we are having a hard time debugging this right now.
@FromLegoUniverse It is a old browser xD roblox has just made HUGE improvments on the old browser they have fixed up.
I like to use Visual studio to make my own browers, and chrome has the best APIs to do so :3 does anyone here remember the old ROCKMELT browser, they gave me their desktop browser, but iām not allowed to use it to anything else than research.
Each time i try to un install roblox player, it pops this message up after āsomething went went wrong, try to uninstall roblox using compatibilety settingsā and i run windows 8.1 O_e
I think iām getting Dizzy, i have been having this issue (topic) since 6th october and today my studio said it was not up to date, but once i uninstalled and installed again, no changeā¦

I did a clean install on my computer, and now my studio Works With playing games! but i hope i donāt have to do ācleanā install EACH time studio breakes.
So you had the same issue as me, for some reason, directly after an install(in my case), it worked, then it seems to give up next time you try, havenāt been able to repro it, just guessing off what you said, and my own experience
I am still having the problem, and i have re installed Windows 8.0 atleast 10 times from Friday until today, i am giving up now, i have installed roblox, tried studio, failed, used regedit to removed roblox from all Places, clean install Windows 8.0 again, and repeated atleast 10 times from Friday until today!
and now i have given up.

Installing Windows 8.1 again, and just hope roblox can fix the launcher FASTER --
