Roblox error code 277 / Roblox disconnection correlation with Windows 11

Anonymous

I am a laptop Windows 11 user when I join a Roblox random game, it pops out an error code 277 in every game. However on my Windows 10 laptop, I do not have this issue, so I downgraded from Windows 11 to Windows 10 and this INSTANTLY solved this issue. I was wondering if anybody had any similar problems / had an explination for why this is.

Hi Scott_The_ethan! So the Error Code 277 in Roblox typically indicates disconnection from the game server, and you're right to notice that Windows 11 may be playing a role in your case. There's so much explanation for that but i will just provide you some troubleshoot you might consider to resolve your problem Step by step

1.Update Network Drivers

Press Win + X → Device Manager → Network Adapters → Right-click your adapter → "Update Driver"

Run Roblox as Administrator

Right-click Roblox icon → “Run as Administrator”

Adjust Compatibility Settings

Right-click Roblox Player → Properties → Compatibility tab → Check "Run this program in compatibility mode for Windows 10"

Disable Power Saving for Wi-Fi

Control Panel → Network and Sharing → Adapter settings → Right-click Wi-Fi → Properties → Configure → Power Management tab → Uncheck “Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power”

Allow Roblox Through Firewall

Settings → Privacy & Security → Windows Security → Firewall & network protection → Allow an app → Add Roblox if it’s not there

Try DNS Change

Sometimes a DNS issue can cause this. Try switching to:

Primary DNS: 8.8.8.8

Secondary DNS: 8.8.4.4 (Google DNS)
