My roblox kept crashing when I got my new pc.

Hi, LukeCC

Welcome to the MicroSoft Community.



I'm sorry to learn that you're experiencing game crashes, I've been seeing a lot of users reporting problems with roblox games lately. I think this is a problem with the game itself. Here are some possible solutions to fix Roblox crashing on your new PC with an NVIDIA GT710 graphics card:



1. Update your graphics drivers: Make sure you have the latest graphics drivers for your NVIDIA GT710 graphics card. You can download the latest drivers from the NVIDIA website. Verify the integrity of your Roblox game files:



2. Corrupted game files can cause Roblox to crash. To verify the integrity of your Roblox game files, follow these steps:

• Open the Roblox launcher.
  
• Click on the gear icon in the top-right corner.
  
• Select “Settings”.
  
• Click on the “Verify Files” button.
  
• Disable Fullscreen optimizations:
  

3. Fullscreen optimizations can sometimes cause games to crash. To disable Fullscreen optimizations for Roblox, follow these steps:

• Right-click on the Roblox shortcut on your desktop.
  
• Select “Properties”.
  
• Click on the “Compatibility” tab.
  
• Check the box next to “Disable fullscreen optimizations”.
  
• Click “Apply” and then “OK”.
  
• Change your Roblox graphics settings:
  

4. Reinstall Roblox: If none of the above solutions work, you can try reinstalling Roblox. To do this, follow these steps:

• Uninstall Roblox from your computer.
  
• Download the latest version of Roblox from the Roblox website.
  
• Install Roblox and try playing the game again.
  

If you’re still having problems with Roblox crashing, you may need to contact Roblox support for further assistance.

The stock answer provided by YanYannn above is - at best - incomplete. The Roblox executable (when installed via Microsoft Store) is in the folder C:\Program Files\WindowsApps which Microsoft has made inaccessible to users, rendering the instructions for disabling compatibility mode useless on their own (and I'm loath to tinker with the folder permissions). And if there were a firewall related issue, one would have thought that Roblox would not work at all, as opposed to successfully connecting to the Roblox servers but then randomly crashing every few minutes.

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Roblox app, I've tried clearing the Roblox file cache in AppData\Local\Roblox, I've performed system checks/diagnostics and I've tried updating my video drivers in the hope of resolving this, but all to no avail. Basically I've tried everything bar resetting Windows. This is happening on two different PCs, one running Windows 10 and one running Windows 11. At best I am able to get about five minutes' gameplay before Roblox crashes on the Windows 11 PC (on the Windows 10 PC, freezes/crashes are more sporadic).

The one thing that appears to have worked is to abandon the Microsoft Store version of the Roblox app in favour of the one directly downloadable from roblox.com.

Bro that’s what happened to mine on cod no joke when I first got my Xbox it kept crashing. Btw I’ve bought series s I’ll let you know what happens

Thanks for responding.. the controller wasn't crashing..Microsoft's website kept crashing when I was trying to replace my controller online through the warranty website

Hello, i posted a reply with a solution one that worked for me. I use 2 computers to play roblox with 3 accounts. 1 of them HAS to be on microsoft store because thats the only non technical software way you can play multiple accounts on one pc.

WHAT ive noticed.

-a fresh install of the microsoft store client(edit the MS roblox client) when you restart your pc efffects the crashes. when i added this to my routine it reduced the crashes by 75% or more

-not have specifically the microsoft store version of the game minimized for any amount of time more than 20-30 seconds

If you can play this on the roblox website version of the game not microsoft store version as they are separate. that one never crashes or at least very rarely.

if you must though, do what i was doing and youll save yourself a lot of headache. It's gotta be a memory leak, or a one drive complication as microsoft store makes sure you can only put things on the drive with windows installed onto it. happy new year, gl and hf.
