Hello, today i have done a clean reinstall of windows just to find out roblox doesnt work,
i have tried disabling secure boot. removing roblox install directory (so basically clean installing) Roblox, and nothing yet. i am not using bitdefender or anything else I am not running any overclocking tools (msi afterburner ect)
NOTE: After experimenting around a little, i created a new user account on windows (no admin perms and NO spaces in the name.) roblox worked normally like nothing happened, i tested a dusty trip and bee swarm and both were fine

System specs:

11th Gen Intel(R) Core™ i5-1135G7 @ 2.40GHz
Intel Iris Xe graphics
8GB ram

OS: Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC (21H2)

Yeah i had ur problem, are u using the web version?

#3

Yes i am i will now update the post becouse i have new information

#4

So what u have to do is stop it from automatically loading ROBLOX when u press play and make it ask to open this link,

if that does not work then press Windows + R type in %localappdata%
image
search for the ROBLOX folder
image
find Versions
image
find a random version with the robloxplayerlauncher.exe in it and execute it

It’s a terribly annoying bug i already have for over 2 years and i am starting to get sick of it, clicking open link is the least annoying solution i have found. (i typed this at 1 am so i will go sleepy sleepy in a moments notice)

Opening it from %localappdata% roblox whatever doesnt seem to work, (i forgot how to stop it from auto opening roblox becouse i just click always allow) im using firefox so the same as you, so how do i make it not auto open again?

#6

Let me check how you do that again, also what isn’t working exactly?

#7

Opening from “C:\Users\myuser\AppData\Local\Roblox\Versions\version-d6abc3b106a04c5c\RobloxPlayerLauncher.exe”

#8

Click this button and press the X at Allowed

Try fully uninstalling roblox from the face of your computer

#11

I have tried that but ill try again, also i had this same issue but on a core i3 system that litteraly required me to uninstall gpu drivers for it to even boot

#12

I’d reccomend trying everything again with the things i told u and seeing if that works, otherwise play roblox on the MiCrOsOfT aPp version of roblox and bring this up to roblox as a massive bug which already needs fixing for 2 YEARS

Small issue, windows 10 LTSC does not have the microsoft store, i can add it in with some modding but uhh i dont wanna touch that buggy unstable roblox that crashes every 10 minutes

#14

Understandable, make a new post as a bug report is the next move i think

#15

i had to use the app version for 6 months :sob:

#16

also worst thing is that this litteraly worked before i reinstalled windows (got a virus) this is litteraly the same ISO ive used last time… also why does it work on another user???

#17

also, the only time ive dealt with the microsoft store app when exploiters were using it before they added byfron to it (wasnt fun)

#18

maybe it has to do with stuff which roblox leaves after being uninstalled

#19

i dont know if you know what this is, but this is a tool called uninstall tool, it has a option to delete every trace of a program and it works great for me (in terms of actually removing a program 100%)

I know what it is my dad works in IT and even he couldn’t help me when i first encountered this problem :sob:
