Fixed : The Version of Roblox Studio is out of date. Please Close all Instances and Reinstall From

The message “the version of roblox studio is out of date. please close all instances and reinstall from…” means Roblox Studio requires an update, and you must close all currently running versions before installing the latest version.

Here’s how to fix it:

✅ Step-by-Step Fix

🔁 1. Close All Roblox Studio Instances

• Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open Task Manager (on Windows).

• Look for any process named “RobloxStudio.exe” or “Roblox” and End Task on each.

• On Mac, use Activity Monitor instead.

🧹 2. Clear Temporary Roblox Files

Sometimes corrupted cache prevents proper updates.

• Windows:

  1. Press Windows + R to open the Run dialog.

  2. Type:

     %localappdata%\Roblox


  3. Delete these folders if they exist:

     • Versions

     • logs

     • ClientSettings (if present)

• Mac:

  • Navigate to ~/Library/Application Support/Roblox/ and delete similar folders like logs or Versions.

🔄 3. Reinstall Roblox Studio

1. Go to the official Roblox Studio download page:
   🔗 https://www.roblox.com/create

2. Click Start Creating → It will prompt you to download RobloxStudioLauncher.

3. Run the installer and let it finish the setup.

4. Launch Roblox Studio again.

🔐 4. Run as Administrator (Windows only)

• Right-click the RobloxStudioLauncher.exe file.

• Select Run as administrator.

• This ensures it has permissions to update correctly.

🛑 Still Not Working?

Try these extra steps:

• Check your antivirus or firewall: Make sure it’s not blocking Roblox update servers.

• Check for multiple installations: If you installed Roblox from both the Microsoft Store and browser, uninstall both, restart, and reinstall from browser only.

• Use a different user account: Sometimes local user permissions prevent update. Try logging in to another admin account on your device.

Make sure your operating system meets the latest system requirements and always keep Roblox Studio up to date to avoid compatibility or feature issues.
