Roblox may not start due to several reasons. One common issue is interference from firewall or antivirus software. Programs like Bitdefender or other antivirus software might block Roblox. Adding Roblox as an exception or configuring the antivirus settings can help.
Another reason could be background processes or applications. Overclocking software such as MSI Afterburner and Rivatuner may cause issues. Closing these processes might resolve the problem.
System configuration issues can also prevent Roblox from starting. For example, Roblox’s new anti-cheating technology may not work well on ARM64 systems. This can cause the game to malfunction.
Temporary files and cache can create problems too. Clearing temporary internet files, especially on Windows 10, can help. This simple step often resolves many startup issues.
Corrupted files are another common cause. Reinstalling Roblox can fix corrupted files and usually resolves the issue. Additionally, rebooting the computer often helps in such cases.
Some users face compatibility issues, particularly on Windows 11. Reinstalling Roblox and clearing temporary files can usually fix these problems. Deleting specific files like `webview2loader.dll` and `RobloxPlayerBeta.dll` can also be a solution.
These troubleshooting steps cover most scenarios where Roblox fails to start. Follow them to get back to enjoying your game.
