| Every time I try to open up a game on roblox a External Protocol Request pops up and seeing as roblox is already installed I do not know why it is asking me this. If someone can verify me that this is not any type of malware or something please respond to this thread. |

| This is actually part of downloading roblox. Just check the "Remember My Choice For all links of this type" and then click "Launch Application" |

| I am using Chrome and this strange "External Protocol Request" box did not appear on my screen. I am using OS X 10.10.1 and it only happens on windows. |

| Is anyone having a problem were the protocol doesn't appear? even after click player, i have uninstalled roblox multiple times and download it again, each time the protocol didn't appear. I am using google chrome, and this problem is stoping me from joining games on roblox, and for some weird reason i cant even connect to the games on roblox studio, each time asking me to download. |

| I found one only solution that works and that's downloading Firefox. I've done countless of ROBLOX re-installs but I have yet to recieve the Protocol Message. Although, I might say to re-install chrome but my internet is slow so I have to do it overnight |

This is part of the steps taken to open roblox. REMEMBER! THIS IS AN UNUSUAL OCCURANCE FOR AN APP TO ASK THIS (other than roblox) If this happens to u in other situations and u did nothing to trigger it. ur computer is under full attack and there is nothing you can really do |

I need help because whenever I launch a roblox game (im on chrome) the external protocol does not show up! what does that mean?Do I have to do something thats really complicated? I thought I had the infinite download loop but while searching around I found the roblox chrome update page for 2015 and I saw a protocol thing.This started on Nov. 4
