Windows 10: How can I open the roblox launcher without errors?

Hello, I am experiencing a problem on windows 10, which is that I can't open the roblox launcher, it says an error occured while starting roblox , details : HttpSendRequest failed , [https://cilentsettingscdn.roblox.com/v2/client-version/WindowsPlayer]. Error: The server name could not be resolve address code 0x80072ee7, I tried flush dns, reinstalling the launcher, restarting the pc, trying a different browser and turning off the antivirus, but still won't load.

Roblox links won't open with Microsoft Roblox

The first step still doesn't work, after clicking on a roblox experience on browser I get this if I dont have Roblox Player installed.

I already tried the other 2 steps.

I came to the conclusion that it's probably a problem on Roblox's site for not allowing the MS app to open links from roblox because they made a different file type for each of them


and you can only change the ROBLOX one to MS Roblox and Roblox Player, the ROBLOX-PLAYER one can only use the Roblox Player version.

 

Roblox links won't open with Microsoft Roblox

It seems like your system is still associating the Roblox player's app with the links instead of the Microsoft Roblox app. Here are a few things you can try to resolve the issue:

1- Reset the default app settings: Go to Windows Settings > Apps > Default apps > Reset to default. This will reset the default app settings for all file types and protocols, including Roblox links. After doing this, try opening the Roblox link again and see if it opens with the Microsoft Roblox app.

2- Set the default app for Roblox links: Go to Windows Settings > Apps > Default apps > Choose default apps by protocol. Look for "Roblox-player" in the list and click on it. Then select "Microsoft Roblox" as the default app for this protocol.

3- Uninstall both apps and reinstall Microsoft Roblox: Uninstall both the Roblox player's app and the Microsoft Roblox app. Then download and reinstall the Microsoft Roblox app from the Microsoft Store. After doing this, try opening the Roblox link again and see if it opens with the Microsoft Roblox app.

Hope this can help you solving the issue.

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



In order to get clarity and to assist you accordingly, please reply with the answers to the questions below:

• What is the Version and Build of Windows 10 currently installed? (Type winver in Windows search/Run command)

Step 2: Run the Windows Store Apps Troubleshooter

Select the Start button, and then select Settings>Update & Security > Troubleshoot, and then from the list select Windows Store apps > Run the troubleshooter.



Step 3: Reset Roblox app

1. Press Windows + I key to open Windows Settings.
