When ever I join a game, in the corner it is ready my PC component temperature. How are they getting that information? Scanning my PC?

...What?

ROBLOX doesn't do anything you're saying it does. There's no temperature thing, and scanning your PC wouldn't give ROBLOX that information, let alone send it to ROBLOX's servers. Are you joking or something?

I wish I could post screenshots.... ROBLOX is reading my CPU and GPU temps and displaying them on the game.

1) Why would ROBLOX display your GPU and CPU temperatures on your screen?
2) Do you have a different program installed that shows your CPU and GPU temperatures on your screen while running games?
3) It makes no sense for ROBLOX developers to go through the trouble of adding a temperature-reading feature.
4) Even if it were reading your temperatures, why should you care if ROBLOX Player reads your temperatures? Why would you care if it sends it to ROBLOX servers?
5) Displaying your hardware temperatures isn't sending your temperatures to ROBLOX.
6) Even if ROBLOX employees sat there watching your hardware temperatures (which they don't), it's not like your privacy is at risk. Unless you consider the heat in your computer private.

This has popped up a few times. While loading the game it will pop up for a second. I do not have a temp program with the display it is giving me. And it's only up while on roblox.

I also know this isn't a program running over the game because this has popped up on my laptop too, which doesn't have any software that read CPU and GPU temps. I tried joining new games on ROBLOX and it wont go away. It's only on ROBLOX.

Mind explaining how you know it's not a separate program? It could be running in ROBLOX and not in Chrome or on your desktop because it's a program that only displays itself in fullscreen games, or any game in general.

okay, so if this isn't a separate program, I'll do the service of informing you that ROBLOX doesn't do what you say it does, and that you're probably lying.

Very interesting... No temp app installed? I have no idea as to why roblox would do that. I have an an idea. Before starting roblox press alt and F4 at the same time, then select task manager. Keep your eyes on the running processes. Start roblox, then look at them. If anything besides roblox that you do not recognize shows up, then delete it and restart roblox. And if something does show up, tell us what it is.

Instead of Alt + F4, you meant Ctrl + Alt + Del, but don't do either.

Use Ctrl + Shift + Esc to instantly ope Task Manager.

I am not lying at all. I do have some temp programs, but those come with the drivers that are meant to come with my motherboard, CPU, and so on. I have check all background apps, everything is normal and nothing is running indicating it was something I downloaded. Need proof? Tell me a place where I can send a pic to, and I can show you.

Yeah, then that's what's displaying the CPU and GPU temperatures when you play games.

Uh, didn't we solve the issue? Isn't it clear now to you that it's a third-party program that's displaying the temperature information?

Jesus Christ! IT IS NOT ANOTHER PROGRAM. Wish I could show you in person.... If it was another program, IT WOULD BE ON GAMES OTHER THAN ROBLOX. Which it is not!
