How do I disable the escape keybind that opens the ROBLOX menu?

I was trying to find the solution, and I found this:

The problem is that this disables every keybind
If I try to add a if statement like so

game:GetService("UserInputService").InputBegan:Connect(function(Key)
    if Key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Escape then
        TextBox:CaptureFocus()
    end
end)

It is too slow and the escape keybind does its thing before the code captures the textbox

How would I fix this?

if you mean these then you can run a loop to set every children name to “CoreGui” with pcall

for _,i in game:GetChildren() do
	pcall(function()
		i.Name = "CoreGui"
	end)
end

note that this is a bug and roblox may patch it later

first question; um… why? i assume you’re trying to open up some secondary menu instead, which in that case, it seems it is not possible. i’ve tried this before; using ContextActionService to sink the input (didn’t work), and a bunch of other stuff that didn’t work. i would not recommend using the solution of literally exploiting a bug to prevent the user from doing anything with the gui, including being able to LEAVE THE GAME?? :sob:, unfortunately this does not seem possible.

Opening the DevConsole and searching it a bit lets you see all the bound keys, some of which (maybe) could be unbound. One of those is the Roblox Menu.

I don’t know if it is allowed, could I say no?

You would be trying to modify important things about Roblox, for example: eliminating the possibility for mobile users to exit the experience (again, obviously it is an example, they can still exit)

Mobile Users have the back button, I use that rather than Roblox’s.

You’d have to not check it at all, it only impeeds with Roblox’s CoreScripts, it’s possible to delete the statement that checks UserInputService:GetFocusedTextbox(). It’s only getting tricky when you have another TextBox you want to type in.

#8

You require a custom movement / camera script for this to work. You can still use Roblox’s Core Scripts but that’s defeating the purpose of removing all Core Components including Roblox Core Scripts.

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local RunService = game:GetService("RunService")
local Workspace = game:GetService("Workspace")

local Player = Players.LocalPlayer
local Character = Player.Character or Player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local Humanoid = Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid") :: Humanoid

local Head = Character:WaitForChild("Head") :: BasePart
local HumanoidRootPart = Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart") :: BasePart

local Camera = Workspace.CurrentCamera
Camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
Camera.FieldOfView = 90

RunService.RenderStepped:Connect(function(Delta_Time: number)
	Camera.CFrame = CFrame.new(Head.CFrame.Position) * (HumanoidRootPart.CFrame - HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.Position)
	
	Player:Move(
		Vector3.new(
			(UserInputService:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.D) and 1 or 0) - (UserInputService:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.A) and 1 or 0),
			0,
			(UserInputService:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.S) and 1 or 0) - (UserInputService:IsKeyDown(Enum.KeyCode.W) and 1 or 0)
		),
		true
	)
end)

Here’s the script that disables the Menu from openning by Focusing on a Textbox.

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")

local Player = Players.LocalPlayer
local GUI_Directory = Player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")

local Screen_GUI = Instance.new("ScreenGui", GUI_Directory)
local Textbox = Instance.new("TextBox", Screen_GUI)

UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(e, g)
	Textbox:CaptureFocus()
	print(e.KeyCode.Name)
end)

When something annoys somebody as much as the Core Main Menu annoys me, they’ll always find a way to solve their problem one way or another. Me 1 - 0 Roblox. They cannot fix this unless they annoy existing games by creating a new problem solving this one.

It’s an example, I said it twice, obviously there are still more ways to close Roblox Player.

#10

You can just use the close button on desktop

#11

Then how come they have not patched this bug yet?

Bug that allows you to hide new coregui - Engine Bugs - Developer Forum | Roblox

The first reply answered my question but once it gets patched I will mark yours as solution

#13

if you’ve used the method you’d know there is NO UI, including the button :upside_down_face:

it doesn’t matter if you can close it with other ways, that’s a breach of robloxs safety

#14

I am making a custom ROBLOX menu anyways
