How to fix failed to create directory error in Roblox

This particular error prevents you from running the game and will pop up with the code “error 3” so, follow these steps to fix it:

• Press Windows key + R, to open the “run” box;
• Type %AppData% and click OK;
• Now you will be looking at the “Roaming” directory;
• Click on “AppData” to go back and then go to “Local”;
• You will find many folders so locate the Roblox one;
• Double click to open it and create a new folder inside, called “Downloads”;
• Launch Roblox and it should work correctly.

This should fix the app having issues creating a new folder inside the Roblox directory. But if the error code showing up is 5, then that is a problem relating to administratory permissions.
