Roblox is a free-to-play online multiplayer creative game that has become quite well-known among gamers as it is free-to-play and available on every known platform. There is an issue where the Roblox seems to be lost in a loop configuring itself with your system. It is mainly caused by the antivirus you are using to shield your computer. Just follow these fixes to solve your problem in no time at all.
Workarounds –
1. Restart your system.
2. Check the internet connection on your machine.
Fix 1 – Disable or uninstall the Antivirus
The antivirus, even Windows Security may restrict Roblox and create this problem. So, disable it or uninstall it.

4. Now, scroll down and tap on the “Manage settings“.
5. Now, on the next screen, toggle the “Real-time protection” option to “Off“.
6. Just like that, set the “Cloud-delivered protection” to
“Off“.
Now, close the Windows Security window. After disabling the antivirus, launch the Roblox and check whether this works.
NOTE –
Once Roblox does configure successfully, don’t forget to re-enable the Real-time protection and Cloud-delivered protection in Windows Security or any other antivirus on your system. Otherwise, your system will be vulnerable to foreign threats.
