This Has Got Me So Confused Now, Ive been trying to make a datastore for points for a while but nothing works, tutorials nope, trying it in studio and out of studio had no use, api services on also and nothing still works. Ive followed so much and spent hours writing code that doesnt work

This is my leaderstats

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
local leaderstats = Instance.new(“Folder”)
leaderstats.Name = “leaderstats”
leaderstats.Parent = plr

local points = Instance.new("NumberValue")
points.Name = "Points"
points.Value = 0
points.Parent = leaderstats

local wins = Instance.new("NumberValue")
wins.Name = "Wins"
wins.Value = 0
wins.Parent = leaderstats

end)

I Have Some Code I Have Written before hand that was scrapped but it could be close to whats needed so im going to send it below

local DataStoreService = game:GetService(“DataStoreService”)
local myDataStore = DataStoreService:GetDataStore(“MyDataStore”)

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
local leaderstats = Instance.new(“Folder”)
leaderstats.Name = “leaderstats”
leaderstats.Parent = plr

local points = Instance.new("NumberValue")
points.Name = "Points"
points.Value = 0
points.Parent = leaderstats

local wins = Instance.new("NumberValue")
wins.Name = "Wins"
wins.Value = 0
wins.Parent = leaderstats

local data
local success, errorMessage = pcall(function()
	data = myDataStore:GetAsync(player.UserId)
end)

if success then
	Points.Value = data
else
	warn(errorMessage)
end

end)

game.Players.PlayerRemoving:Connect(function(player)
local success, errorMessage = pcall(function()
myDataStore:SetAsync(player.UserId, player.leaderstats.Points.Value)
end)

if success then
	print("Data Saved")
else
	warn(errorMessage)
end

end)

game:BindToClose(function()
for i, player in pairs(game.Players:GetChildren()) do
player:Kick(“Server Closed”)
end

wait(2)

end)

Your Code

local points = Instance.new("NumberValue")
points.Name = "Points"
points.Value = 0
points.Parent = leaderstats

local wins = Instance.new("NumberValue")
wins.Name = "Wins"
wins.Value = 0
wins.Parent = leaderstats

local data
local success, errorMessage = pcall(function() 
	data = myDataStore:GetAsync(player.UserId) -- plr not player
end)

if success then
	Points.Value = data -- Where you failed.
else
	warn(errorMessage)
end

Try This:

local points = Instance.new("NumberValue")
points.Name = "Points"
points.Value = 0
points.Parent = leaderstats

local wins = Instance.new("NumberValue")
wins.Name = "Wins"
wins.Value = 0
wins.Parent = leaderstats

local data
local success, errorMessage = pcall(function() 
	data = myDataStore:GetAsync(plr.UserId) 
end)

if success then
	points.Value = data
else
	warn(errorMessage)
end
