Follow these steps to fix the issues and prevent them:
What to Do - Windows
Please try each step below, one at a time, in order. If one solution doesn't work, move on to the next!
Reboot
First reboot your computer and try to play. Sometimes this may be all that is needed to solve Roblox or Roblox Studio related problems.
Check Your Proxy Settings
If the above steps did not solve your Roblox Studio problem, it is possible that you may need to make sure that your computer isn't trying to connect through a proxy server. Please follow these steps:
Windows 7 or Earlier
- Go to the Start menu
- Search "proxy" and "Configure Proxy Server" will show up, click on it
- Click LAN Settings and unclick all the check marks in that tab
- Click OK
Windows 8 or 8.1
- Go to the tiled start screen by clicking the lower left-corner of your screen
- Type "proxy" and "Configure Proxy Server" will show up, click on it
- Click LAN Settings and unclick all the check marks in that tab
- Click OK
Windows 10
- Press Windows Key + S on your keyboard. Alternatively, if Cortana's "Ask Me Anything" bar is available in your task bar, you can just click that
- Type "proxy" and "Change Proxy Settings" will show up, click on it
- Make sure "Use Setup Script" and "Use a Proxy Server" are set to off
- Scroll down and click Save
Check Your Windows System Clock
It may sound strange, but various problems can actually be caused by your Windows system clock being set to the wrong time or date. If this is the cause, simply correcting everything should remedy the situation. While this can be done manually, you can also set it to automatically update with a server, thus making sure it doesn't slip behind and start causing issues again. Here's how to do this:
Windows 8 or earlier
- Right click on the windows clock in the lower right corner
- Click Adjust Date/Time
- Select the Internet Time tab
- Here you should be able to synchronize your time and date with an internet server
Windows 10
- Right click on the windows clock in the lower right corner
- Make sure "Set Time Automatically" is turned on and you have selected the correct time zone
