Yesterday(Wednesday) afternoon Roblox was working GREAT, but when it hit the evening time Roblox said it needed to update, so I left it alone for a while, and it got stuck on the updating screen and never got to the loading bar. So I tried again earlier today with the same results. I tried to Re-install Roblox afterwords, but the program wont run. I don't know if it's my firewall, my browser, ect. If anyone could post a solution that would be GREAT, thanks.

Seikun, is it still an issue or did you solve it? And luigi, even IT wouldn't ask to send a computer to a random address.

It's nice to see that I'm not alone on this, but it'd be more helpful to me if anyne here would start making solutions.

If you are still having the issue with ROBLOX not responding when you try to update and such, there is one solution that most likely work for anyone who connects to the internet using a wireless adapter. Thanks to twostars for finding the solution. You can look it up here on the Microsoft Forums. I've tried to make the steps easier to understand. Post: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/259c7ef2-3770-4212-8fca-c58936979851/how-to-install-microsoft-loopback-adapter 1. Click the 'Start menu' 2. Type in the search bar 'cmd' 3. Right click on cmd and select 'Run as administrator' 4. In the command prompt, type in 'hdwwiz.exe' 5. A window 'Welcome to the Add Hardware Wizard' will open, click 'Next' 6. Select 'Install the hardware that I manually select from a list (Advanced) 7. Scroll down and select 'Network adapters' and click 'Next' 8. Under 'Manufacturer' select 'Microsoft' 9. Under 'Network Adapter' scroll down and select 'Microsoft Loopback Adapter' 10. Click 'Next' and again click 'Next' 11. Try running the ROBLOX player or RobloxPlayerLauncher.exe from the 'Start menu' This should work for Windows operating systems. I'm pretty sure several other people have posted the same solution, credit twostars!

Exsisor I have a windows 7 computer and it worked for me. But I also found out that roblox doesn't work because of a pop-up blocker or its a firewall problem. Ask a parent about it. And if none of these things work just ask a parent to wipe out your computer and restore it. I hope this helps.
