For quite a while, users have randomly had issues with launching roblox after an installation or update, and I myself have got these two errors numerous times.

Going about fixing them can be a tricky process as any attempt at a clean reinstallation will just net you the same results in most cases, HOWEVER, after doing some troubleshooting myself and looking up various potential fixes, I've found two that usually work.

First, For the "Access is denied" error you can try following the steps highlighted by the user; Taluca in a separate forum post:
"1###n#########nd re-install Ro#######2###p####he Start menu.
3. Type "terminal" (without quotes) in the search ba###nd hit Enter.
4. A black box with a blinking cursor will appear.
4a. If the box doesn't open, try typing "cmd" or "command prompt" instead of "terminal".
5. Type "ipconfig /flushdns" (without quotes) and hit Enter.
6. After the success message shows up, close the terminal and reinstall/open Roblox."

Now, for some of you, this might have fixed your issue, however some users have encountered the "Requested Operation requires elevation" error either after doing this or just from the get-go. To fix this you can try these steps:
1. Open Windows Explorer
2. Go to C:\users\Keiren\appdata\local\roblox
3. Right click on RobloxPlayerBeta.exe and select Properties
4. Under the Compatibility tab, Tick "Run this Program as Administrator"
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 with RobloxPlayerLauncher.exe
6. Double click/run both of them just for giggles

Hopefully, after going through all of this you'll be able to run Roblox again without issue, if not well.. Good luck finding a fix, my friends.

To clarify, these fixes can be found elsewhere, however, they can be a little irritating to find, so hopefully now it'll be easier for users to find and fix these errors.

Good day.
