Problem: Cannot join Games, cannot Build properly, cannot Edit properly.
Problem Occured: Approx. 2 years ago
----------------------------------------
System OS:
PC, Windows 8 - (Confirmed to Work, ran fine for Approx. 1 year)
----------------------------------------
In Detail:
Whenever I try to play games I get a "Unable to Join Game. Try again later" error.
Whenever I enter Build mode, all I get is an empty map (No baseplate, no character) - even when I already have stuff in it. Also cannot insert Models from ROBLOX (.RBXM files on computer can be inserted).
Edit also glitches same way as Build mode.
--------------------------------------
When trying to play from ROBLOX Studio:
Unable to Join Game. Try again later.
--------------------------------------
When trying to play from ROBLOX Player:
"An Error occurred while starting ROBLOX Player.
Details: CreateProcess
C:\Users\(Me)\AppData\Local\Roblox\Versions\version-a70065f9195a4a76\
RobloxPlayer.exe failed: The system cannot find the file specified."
--------------------------------------
Yes; I have uninstalled and reinstalled ROBLOX. Doesn't work.
Yes; I have tried running ROBLOX in Compatibility mode. Doesn't work.
Yes; I have tested ROBLOX on another brand-new never used computer. Doesn't work.
No: I find it highly unlikely that is an internet problem and have taken no action to modify the internet service and/or firewalls.
---------------------------------------
For those who are more technically minded or have encountered this problem before, any advice or suggestions? |

This sounds like a problem that a lot of people had a long time ago. Try logging out and playing a game as a guest. |

March 21, 2014. I first experienced this problem. I launch my games off google Chrome. I have Un-Installed ROBLOX having already deleted robloxlogs, and the roblox folder. However When I try to install it again, it simply says: Roblox has stopped working. |

C:\Users\(You)\AppData\Local\Roblox\Versions\version-a70065f9195a4a76\
What are the contents of this folder? What happens when you type this into an Explorer window? |

Same thing has happened to me. (My caps key isn't working) I press play game and it never loads. It just says "roblox is updating, please wait" and also when i click the icon on the computer menu, the webpage for roblox never shows up. i really love roblox and im afraid i may never play again. anyone help? |

Same over here, when I join, the game simply freezes. Please roblox fix this, PLEASE. I've tried with many servers and have uninstalled and restarted the computer, but it simply, WONT WORK |
|
|
Sorry for being slow to reply - I'm dealing with things outside of ROBLOX.
Right-click RobloxPlayerBeta and run it as Admin. What should happen is it contacts roblox asking for a server (which it won't because you didn't start it from the browser), it gets told it's out of date and it starts downloading a fresh copy. |

Thats an odd problem Im having the same thing

One small problem with that. When I right-click, run as Admin (same message regardless if I run as Admin or not) I get this message:
---------------------
Options:
-? [ --help ] produce help message
-g [ --globalBasicSettingsPath ] arg path to GlobalBasicSettings_(n).xml
-v [ --version ] print version string
--id arg id of the place to join
-c [ --content ] arg path to the content directory
-a [ --authenticationURL ] arg authentication url from server
-t [ --authenticationTicket ] arg game session ticket from server
-j [ --joinScriptURL ] arg url of launch script from server
-w [ --waitEvent ] arg window is invisible until this named event is signaled
--API arg output API file
-d [ --dmp ] upload crash dmp
--play specifies the launching of a game
--app specifies the launching of an app
----------------------------------------
And typing the letters doesn't do anything. Just that annoying beep sound when you've got a window that won't close and requires that you finish it first. |

Those are launch options, like "C:\executable.exe -silent".
The "-d" option is encouraging; try creating a shortcut, and editing the directory to include "-d -id 142823291 --play" at the end.
What should happen is roblox will open, start loading the place as a guest, then crash and upload a dump file to roblox. |

Putting "-d -id 142823291 --play" at the end of the directory gives me a "Unrecognized option '-id'".
Changing it to -d --id 142823291 --play" doesn't do a thing, and putting -d --id arg 142823291 --play" gives a "the argument ('arg') for option '--id' is invalid" [possibly a place ID in question does not exist?] |

@CDAR My roblox is fixed. Just get a parent or someone to update, or restore the computer to what it was like before it got screwed up. kk? |

My brother is having that problem too. He's on a Windows 8.
The roblox player doesn't work and you can't play any game -same msg- via google chrome.
It must be an update that messed it up.
(I can play perfectly fine on my Windows 7 AND Windows Vista. |

Try updating to Windows 8.1 |
|
MrX4353Join Date: 2009-06-16 Post Count: 85 |
Well, my hard disk crashed randomly for some reason (not due to installing Win 8.1) and I had to get a new one. Now - for the time being at least - ROBLOX Player runs games through Internet Explorer.
Thanks for all the tips/help/support, guys. |

dude i think is a problem with some corrupted or exclued program or something ( or can be tbb.dll problem)
|
|
|
I reccomend you try the following two actions;
-Re-Log your account on roblox. (to make sure you are logged in properly).
and
-Re-install roblox, to ensure there are no bugs in your game.
Hope this helps, Kyle. |

Happened to me, 6/10/2015. Windows 8. Tried running in administrator. Did not work. Uninstalled several times, too. |
|
|
Just happened to me now says that I don't have the tbb.dll installed |

Roblox is in maintenance you should wait a moment.
If that doesn't work then it might be that you need to re-install roblox.
1. Use windows explorer
2. Search for %appdata%
3. Click Roaming
4. Click AppData above the documents
5. Click Local
6. If you clicked that click the Roblox document now
7. Click Versions
8. Delete all the documents
9. Re-install roblox
10. If that didn't work then you just need to wait, like i've been writing earlier. |
