⚙️ Roblox Not Launching After Update — How to Fix It

😤 Did Roblox stop launching after the latest update? Don’t worry — this happens sometimes, especially after big patches. Here’s a full guide on why Roblox won’t open and how to fix it fast 💚

🧩 1. Check Your Internet and Roblox Servers

Sometimes Roblox won’t start because the servers are down or your connection is unstable.

🌍 Go to status.roblox.com — if you see red indicators, Roblox servers are having issues.
📶 Restart your router or switch to mobile data.
💡 Try changing networks (Wi-Fi ↔ mobile) — sometimes that helps immediately.

🧹 2. Clear Roblox Cache

After updates, old files can conflict with the new version, preventing Roblox from launching. Clearing the cache usually fixes it:

💻 On PC (Windows):

🔍 Press Win + R and type %LocalAppData%\Roblox
🗑 Delete the Versions folder or the entire Roblox directory
🚀 Launch Roblox again — it will reinstall automatically

📱 On Mobile:

Go to “Settings → Apps → Roblox”
Select “Storage” → tap “Clear Cache”
Restart the game

💡 Don’t worry — your account data won’t be deleted.

🔄 3. Reinstall Roblox

If clearing the cache didn’t help, try reinstalling the game completely:

📦 Uninstall Roblox
⬇️ Download the latest version from the official website
⚙️ Reinstall and log in again

🔥 This fixes the issue in 9 out of 10 cases, especially after major updates.

🧱 4. Check Antivirus and Firewall

Sometimes antivirus or firewall software blocks the new Roblox version by mistake.

🛡 Add Roblox to your antivirus exceptions list
🚫 Temporarily disable your firewall and launch Roblox
💬 If it works — re-enable protection and keep Roblox on the safe list

📱 5. Roblox Not Launching on Mobile

On Android or iPhone, the problem might come from outdated OS or app versions:

📲 Update Roblox via Play Store or App Store
🔋 Restart your phone
🧩 Make sure you have at least 1–2 GB of free space

💡 If it crashes — delete Roblox completely and reinstall from scratch.

🧠 6. Enable Compatibility Mode (PC)

After updates, Roblox may conflict with newer Windows drivers. Compatibility mode can help:

Right-click Roblox shortcut → “Properties”
Go to the “Compatibility” tab
Check “Run this program in compatibility mode for: Windows 8”
Click “Apply” and launch the game

🔥 Once Roblox runs smoothly again, you can disable this option later.
