Bloxstrap (86 BIT) Not Opening.

[NathanielB198]

Hello! I am Nathaniel B, I am having problems with Bloxstrap. And the problem is, it will not work + even with "Open as administrator"

[pizzaboxer]

Can I quickly check what versions of the .NET runtime you have installed?

[NathanielB198]

[NathanielB198]

This is what the .NET runtime i have

[pizzaboxer]

Does installing with Winget work?

[NathanielB198]

Hmm, I'll try that. If it doesn't work I'll give a heads up!

[NathanielB198]

Do you know what I'm suppose to do? Kind of confused

[pizzaboxer]

You just run winget install bloxstrap in the Command Prompt.

[NathanielB198]

should i say Y or N?

[pizzaboxer]

Y

[NathanielB198]

Okay

[NathanielB198]

This is what it said, and im trying to install 86 bit, not 64.

[pizzaboxer]

Can I ask why you're trying to use the 32-bit version and not the 64-bit version? Install the 64-bit runtime here.

[NathanielB198]

My bad, I'll download the 64-bit

[NathanielB198]

Done, should i try installing it again? with winget.

[pizzaboxer]

Yes.

[NathanielB198]

Alright.

Does Bloxstrap launch when you try to open the menu? It's located in the Start menu. If it doesn't, open Event Viewer, go to Windows Logs -> Application, and send any errors related to Bloxstrap.

[pizzaboxer]

Is there another one with .NET Runtime as the source?

[NathanielB198]

[pizzaboxer]

Any other ones? There should be multiple. Check any you can see. One should have a long stack trace.

Okay cool, looks like you're having the same problem as another guy. Here's a fix I've been meaning to test.

https://pizzaboxer.xyz/files/bloxstrap-debug/170/Bloxstrap.exe

Download it, run it, and let me know if Roblox launches.

[NathanielB198]

hmm, k.

[NathanielB198]

it does

[pizzaboxer]

Okay, great, it works. Anyway, replace the Bloxstrap.exe file that's currently located in your installation folder with the one I just gave you. You can find the folder by navigating to %localappdata%\Bloxstrap in the file browser.

[NathanielB198]

I'm i able to access the bloxstrap menu too btw?

[NathanielB198]

nevermind, i can. Thanks for the help! I'll just go tell my other friend

[pizzaboxer]

Closing since this is being handled at #170.
