how to stop running roblox as an administrator

To stop Roblox from running as administrator, open the Roblox shortcut or executable, go to Properties > Compatibility , and uncheck Run this program as an administrator. Then click Apply and OK ; if it keeps happening, uninstall Roblox and reinstall it normally, or use the Microsoft Store version instead.

Steps

1. Find Roblox Player in the Start menu or on your desktop.

2. Right-click it and choose Open file location.

3. Right-click RobloxPlayer.exe or RobloxPlayerLauncher.exe and open Properties.

4. Open the Compatibility tab.

5. Uncheck Run this program as an administrator.

6. Select Apply , then OK.

If it still runs as admin

• Reinstall Roblox completely and make sure you do not install or launch it with admin rights.

• Try the Microsoft Store version, which handles permissions more cleanly.

• If Roblox was originally installed from an admin account, a clean reinstall can fix the permission mismatch.

Note

If Roblox is asking for administrator access every time, that usually means the shortcut or installation was set to run elevated, not that Roblox needs admin mode permanently.
