RobloxPlayerInstaller File Name Issue

Issue Description

When downloading the Roblox Player installer from the website, the file name does not follow the expected naming convention. Instead of being named RobloxPlayerInstaller.exe, the downloaded file includes a hyphen followed by ten random letters (e.g., RobloxPlayerInstaller-ABCDEFGHIJ.exe).

Reproduction Steps

  1. Go to the Roblox website.
  2. Click on any Roblox experience.
  3. Click the blue Play button.
  4. Wait for the text “Roblox is now loading. Get ready!” to disappear.
  5. When the next message appears (“You’re moments away from getting into the experience!”), click the Download and Install Roblox button.
  6. Check the name of the downloaded file.

Expected Behavior

The downloaded file should be named RobloxPlayerInstaller.exe, without any additional characters or random strings.
