Roblox cannot start up. User code = 0x1

Platform Feedback Engine Bugs
#1

This error has been around for quite some time, and I’ve never found a fix for it. Now that RBXDev is up I might finally be able to get an answer to this question.

Every time I join a game a dialog pops up saying “Roblox cannot start up. User code = 0x1”. If I click OK the game exits, and if I try to close it same result. This also seems to prevent me from uploading any model or place.

I’ve had this for a couple of months and I’ve had to move to a old laptop to actually upload the place. Help me!

I hope anyone with knowledge could respond ASAP.

Did you try…
-restarting the computer?
-disabling any antivirus programs?
-reinstalling ROBLOX?

#4

Yes. All of the above.

#5

Eh, hello? :S

#6

What’s your…
-OS?
-CPU?
-installed RAM?
-graphics card?

#7

I’m running Windows 7 with an Intel Core i5-2430M. Installed RAM is 8 gigabytes. My graphics card is a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560M.

Now I have a couple questions. Has anything like this ever been recorded to happen? What’s your progress on this error and maybe what causes it. I would like to know ASAP as I cannot update my game or play anything. It’s troubling as I’m losing money every day.

#8

Is it possible to try loading up ROBLOX on a different internet source?

#9

There is a way to bypass from what I’ve read, it’s using the task manager to bring the ROBLOX game window to the front, and just to ignore the 0x1 error.

#10

I’ve tried loading it up on quite a bit different networks. All had the same result.

I’m using the bypass for games, but still cannot update and it is getting on my nerves.

#11

Anyone here?

#12

Just a thought, but were you banned on an account you’ve used on that computer?

#13

Yes. I was permanetly banned once but I managed to get it back. I’m starting to suspect it’s a covered up IP ban of sorts. :dry:

#14

Exactly what I’ve thought.

A friend of mine was terminated and got exactly the same code whenever he tried to join a game, too.

I wonder why ROBLOX still sends that BS email when I asked about it. They said it had to do with my configuration. I demand an answer and possibly a solution, ROBLOX!

#16

You’ve been hellbanned.

What was the username on the banned account?

Jesus, thanks Shed you’re a lifesaver. I didn’t even know hellbanned was a thing, lol.

It used to be nise45, now it’s Elysine.

Why does your email support say it’s my fault?

#18

Believe or not the support can only help you correctly if they know all of the details. It’s difficult to figure out an issue like this. I assume that error would be similar to a 403 webserver error. There are several reasons why /you/ individually might receive it and they can only make the most general assumption that it’s a problem on your end.

#19

I think you missed Shedletsky’s post. Take a look at that first!

#20

Shedletsky likely came to that assumption based on the content of this thread. I assure you this would be on the list of possible reasons, but it took a bit of research to find out what was causing this error for you.

I used to get this error all the time, it turned out that without specific drivers for my dual-core processor the game servers didn’t let me access them. I have no idea how or why that was the case, but it took shedletsky, myself and the support team with the aid of the engineers to figure it out.
