All Roblox The Hunt Error Codes and how to fix them

Roblox, while a beloved platform, isn’t without its share of hurdles that can hinder your gaming experience, especially during The Hunt Mega Edition 2025. This encompasses error codes, crashes, bugs, and related issues. Though they may be elusive, these occurrences have made an appearance in nearly every experience at least once. Regrettably, these errors still pop up every now and then. We’ve compiled a comprehensive rundown of various Roblox issues along with potential solutions to address them effectively.

All Error Codes in Roblox The Hunt and their reasons

Roblox players may encounter a variety of issues right from the start or even during their intense gaming sessions during The Hunt Mega Edition. Though this list isn’t full of fixes, it highlights some of the most frequent error codes players might face:

Error Code	Error Message/Likely Causes
N/A	“This item has no more copies. Try buying from another user on www.roblox.com. Your account has not been charged.” Displayed when a UGC limited item has no more copies in-stock.
103	“The Roblox experience you are trying to join is currently not available. (Error Code: 103)” Displayed when a user on the Xbox Client attempts to join an experience that is not available on the Xbox platform.
256	“Developer has shut down all game servers or game server has shut down for other reasons, please reconnect (Error Code: 256)” Displayed when a player is banned while playing a game alone. Because it’s only themselves playing the game when they got banned, error code 256 appears instead of 273.
260	“There was a problem receiving data, please reconnect. (Error Code: 260)” Displayed when no data is being received by the Roblox web servers, most possibly a Roblox issue or a local issue preventing Roblox from sending data packets to said user(s).
261	“Error while receiving data, please reconnect. (Error Code: 261)” “There was a problem streaming data, please reconnect. (Error Code: 261)” Displayed when the server fails to send feedback for data requests, which can be caused by a poor internet connection, Roblox downtime, or other issues
262	“There was a problem sending data, please reconnect. (Error Code: 262)” “Error while sending data, please reconnect. (Error Code: 262)” Displayed when a game cannot load after data fails to send.
264	“Same account launched game from different device. Reconnect if you prefer to use this device (Error Code: 264)” “Same account launched experience from different device. Leave the experience from the other device and try again. (Error Code: 264)” “You are already playing a game. Please shut down the other game and try again (Error Code: 264)” Displayed when a client starts while another client is already playing a game. This error can indicate an unknown/unwanted user on an account. This error can also occur if the player is warned/banned in-game, but that error code has been replaced with 273 instead of 264. If no internet issues are occurring with the account, this is likely due to the account being compromised and someone else trying to start a game while the original account owner is already playing a game. When Error 273 occurs, the reconnect button will appear on the right of the Leave Button. This error also appears if a user rejoins a game too quickly, or sometimes when a server completely crashes,
266	“Your connection timed out. Check your internet connection and try again. (Error Code: 266)” Displayed when the connection was timed out. This happens when the client’s connection lags a lot or has not responded for a long time. It usually appears during a game timeout, which can be caused by a weak internet connection, high ping, or a slow computer.
267	“You were kicked from this experience: You have been kicked from the game (Error Code: 267)” “You were kicked from this game: [Reason] (Error Code: 267)” “You have been kicked from the game (Error Code: 267)” This is the only disconnect error that doesn’t appear because of the Roblox client or something on Roblox’s end; rather you were kicked by the game you were connected to. This is because a script used the :Kick() function on your player instance. Also unlike other errors, a custom message can be given in the error message box depending on how you were kicked (not always, however; if no reason is given then the game will simply display the default text): “This game has shut down”
268	“You have been kicked by server. Please close and rejoin another game (Error Code: 268)” “You have been kicked due to unexpected client behavior. (Error Code: 268)” Displayed when a user is kicked from the game and is forced to join another server. This can occur from general connection issues, and in some cases when using exploits or for having a lot of lag. This error can also occur when using a compatibility layer such as Wine to play the game on Linux. it can appear if you are banned.
271	“Server was shutdown due to no active players. (Error Code: 271)” Displayed when a player is inactive in a game for 20 or more minutes while playing a game alone. Because it’s only themselves playing the game, error code 271 appears instead of 278. This can also happen in games that have their player counts boosted with bots; since the bots do not physically exist in the game (there is no location of the bots), but do register as in servers. “You have been kicked by server, please reconnect. (Error Code: 271)” Occurs due to player joining while the server is in the middle of shutting down due to inactive players. “Unable to find instance” An old version of “Server was shut down due to no active players”. Version 2 had the “Reconnect” button, and the “Leave” button, but on 2/3 errors, there is only a “Leave” button.
272	“Disconnected due to Security Key Mismatch (Error Code: 272)” “Lost connection due to an error. (Error Code: 272)” Displayed when the user attempts to join the game while an exploit is loaded.
273	“Disconnected from game, possibly due to game joined from another device (Error Code: 273)” “Same account launched experience from different device. Reconnect if you prefer to use this device. (Error Code: 273)” Identical to error 264, however, this error occurs when a user is in-game while warned, banned or terminated. The user is kicked from the server and their page reloads, which then shows the user the ban/warn. In most cases when pressing reconnect upon being banned with code 273, error code 769 or 773 will show. But it may also happen if the same account launches a game. The same Error Code and Reconnection aftermath can occur if a user presses ”log out from all other sessions” in the security Tab while in-game.
274	“The experience’s developer has temporarily shut down the experience server. Please try again. (Error Code: 274)” Displayed when a developer manually closes a game server (usually when updating the game) or when a private server owner shuts down the private server. Reconnecting will sometimes display error code 773.
275	“Roblox has shut down the server for maintenance. Please try again. (Error Code: 275)” “Roblox has shut down this game server for maintenance (Error Code: 275)” Displayed when Roblox closes a game server for maintenance or if a game is deleted by a Roblox staff member while being played. Rarely displays when the private server owner disables “Allow Joining” in the private server settings
277	“Please check your internet connection and try again. (Error Code: 277)” “Lost connection to the game server, please reconnect (Error Code: 277)” This is usually displayed when the client has one of many different internet issues while connected to a game, including dropped connection, IP address change, disconnecting/connecting to a VPN, or if the player turns off their wi-fi. Can also occur if Roblox disconnects the server automatically, and attempting to rejoin will often show 279. This is also the typical error for when the server the player is connected to is getting overloaded and crashing (Attempting to reconnect in this case often results in a code 279 error).
278	“You were disconnected for being idle 20 minutes (Error Code: 278)” Displayed when a player is inactive in a game for 20 or more minutes. This error code only displays if there are 2 or more players in the server.
279	“Failed to connect to the Game. (ID = 17: Connection attempt failed.) (Error Code: 279)” Displayed when the client is unable to connect to the game server, which can be caused by website blocks on the user’s internet, trying to reconnect to a server that crashed/froze, or when Roblox is experiencing downtime or other issues. It can sometimes occur when a user attempts to rejoin the same server before Roblox disconnects them from their previous visit, and this error can cause users to lose progress from their previous visit. “Failed to connect to the Game. (ID = 146: Illegal teleport destination.)” Displayed when the client attempts to teleport to a place that is inactive or in a different game universe from the start place. “Failed to connect to the game. (ID = 148: Roblox version is out of date. Please uninstall and try again.)” Displayed when the Roblox launcher or client is outdated and must be reinstalled.
280	“Your version of Roblox may be out of date. Please update Roblox and try again. (Error Code: 280)” Displayed when the client is out of date. This can happen if your using a custom launcher that does not automatically update.
282	“Disconnected from game, please reconnect (Error Code: 282)” Displayed when the computer has network issues, or when you are playing an experience that is under review. Error 277 can also occur.
284	“A fatal error occurred while running this game (Error Code: 284)” Displayed when commonly caused by a “UI Overload” (millions of UI elements on the screen, causing a client overload), but the real reason is unknown, Has Gummy Ask got banned for not abouts here.
285	“Client initiated disconnect (Error Code: 285)” This error message is given if no message was given previously for the server shutdown/self destruct. Can also occur from error 256/274 (developer server shutdown).
286	“Your device does not have enough memory to run this experience. Exit back to the app. (Error Code: 286)” Displayed when the device that the game is being played on does not have a valid amount of memory to run the game. “You have been disconnected because you no longer have access to this private server. (Error Code: 286)” Displayed when someone removes you from their private server.
291	“Player has been removed from the DataModel (Error Code: 291)” This error is shown whenever a player was deleted/destroyed from the game server. Some games use this as another way to kick a player.
292	“Your device’s memory is low. Leaving now will preserve your state and prevent Roblox from crashing. (Error Code: 292)” Displayed when Roblox detects low to near insufficient memory to run Roblox. This warning is similar to error code 286, although players who encounter this warning have the choice to keep playing the game or to leave the game. Some high- end games can cause this error quicker then regular games depending on the players mobile device and how it runs Roblox.
517	“This game is currently unavailable. Please try again later. (Error Code: 517)” “This game has ended (Error Code: 517)” Displayed when a client attempts to join a server that is in the process of closing, or when a player attempts to rejoin a server before Roblox disconnects them from their previous visit (ID 17/279 may happen too)
522	“Followed user has left the game (Error Code: 522)” “The user you attempted to join has left the game. (Error Code: 522)” Used to be displayed when a user attempts to join a player into a game after the player they are joining has left. Now the new variant is in the loading screen.
523	“The status of the experience has changed and you no longer have access. Please try again later. (Error Code: 523)” “The status of the game has changed and you no longer have access. Please try again later. (Error code: 523)” “This game is restricted (Error Code: 523)” This is a server error, not a game error. Displayed when the player tries to join a server that has shut down. Used to rarely happen if you joined a friend in a private server when they left. (Status Changed variant) Sometimes happens when joining a game which is unpublished/private.
524	“Not authorized to join this game (Error Code: 524)” “You do not have permission to join this game. (Error Code: 524)” until May 13, 2021 “You do not have permission to join this experience. (Error Code: 524)” since May 14, 2021 Displayed during Roblox downtime, after attempting to join a VIP server they cannot join, attempting to join a paid access game that they do not own, attempting to join a LuoBu (Roblox China) server, or attempting to join a game as a Guest (For guests, it later changed to 610). Displayed when attempting to join a server when the game is private.
525	“The server is currently busy. Please try again. (Error Code: 525)” There is currently not much information about this error. It happens when trying to join a full server for too much time (1-5 minutes)
528	“Your party is too large to join this experience. Try joining a different experience. (Error Code: 528)” Happens when a user’s party is too big to join a game that has a lower player limit (a long time ago because parties have been removed). May also happen when the player’s connection is timed out and/or has problems with connection.
529	“A Http error has occurred. Please close the client and try again. (Error Code: 529)” “We are experiencing technical difficulties. Please try again later. (Error Code: 529)” Displayed when Roblox’s servers are down or slow. May sometimes be displayed on mobile when a player’s internet connection has been disabled before playing a game. It even may be displayed if joining in a game while the user is warned/banned/terminated.
533	“Your privacy settings prevent you from joining this server. (Error Code: 533)” Displayed when attempting to join a private server when “Who can make me a member of their private server?” is set to “No one” or “Friends”. It can be also because the user is a <13 user, and they cant set their private server settings to “Everyone”.
600	“You were banned from this experience by the creator. Here’s a message from the creator:” Utilized as part of Roblox’s in-experience ban API.
610	“Can’t join place [id]: HttpError: [reason] (Error Code: 610)” Displayed when a DNS resolution fails while connecting to a server, or when a user attempts to join a paid access game through the server list before purchasing the game.

How to fix Roblox Error Code 280 in The Hunt Mega Edition

While all of the codes above can pop up at any given time during a Roblox experience, error code 280 has been the most recurring one that has been popping up for users during The Hunt Mega Edition. Here’s how to fix it:

Step 1: The Obvious (But Essential) Update Check

First things first: make sure you’re running the latest version of the Roblox Player. Outdated versions are notorious for causing conflicts. Check the official Roblox website or your platform’s store (if you’re on console) to confirm you’ve got the most up-to-date build. Think of it like giving your game a fresh set of batteries – it needs the newest juice to run smoothly.

Step 2: Console Quick Fix – The Reinstall Routine

If you are playing on a console, such as an Xbox, and the update didn’t do the trick, it’s time for the classic console maneuver: the uninstall/reinstall. Completely remove Roblox from your system, then download a fresh copy from the store. This often clears out any lingering corrupted files that might be causing the issue.

Step 3: PC Players – Time for a Deeper Dive

PC gamers, your troubleshooting might require a bit more finesse. Start with the same reinstall process as console players:

• Basic Reinstall: Uninstall Roblox through your control panel (or Apps settings) and then download and install a fresh copy from the Roblox website. This is your first line of defense.

If that doesn’t work, it’s time to get a little more aggressive:

• The LocalAppData Purge: Sometimes, old configuration files or temporary data can cause problems. We need to nuke those from orbit.
  • Uninstall Roblox.
  • Open your File Explorer and type %LocalAppData% into the address bar. This will take you to a hidden folder where applications store data.
  • Find the “Roblox” folder and delete it. This removes any leftover settings that might be causing the error.
  • Reinstall Roblox.

Step 4: Safe Mode Salvation (PC Only)

Still locked out? Don’t despair! It’s time to boot into Safe Mode. This starts Windows with only the essential drivers and services, which can help isolate the problem:

• Complete Uninstall: Uninstall Roblox and delete the %LocalAppData%/Roblox folder again (as described above).
• Boot into Safe Mode: There are a few ways to do this, but the easiest is usually:
  • Hold down the Shift key while clicking “Restart” from the Windows Start Menu.
  • Choose “Troubleshoot” -> “Advanced options” -> “Startup Settings” -> “Restart”.
  • After your PC restarts, you’ll see a list of options. Select “Enable Safe Mode” (usually by pressing the 4 or F4 key).
• Clean Install in Safe Mode: Once in Safe Mode, download and install a fresh copy of Roblox. This ensures that no other programs or drivers are interfering with the installation.

Step 5: The Nuclear Option (PC – and Proceed with Caution!)

If nothing else has worked, we’re entering the realm of potential operating system issues. There might be a deeper conflict between your Windows installation and Roblox.

• First: Check Windows files Before considering a clean install, we can check if your files are corrupted.
  • Open Command Prompt by searching for cmd in the start menu.
  • Select “Run as Administrator.”
  • Type SFC /scannow and press enter.
  • Let this process finish. If it finds and repairs files, try installing ROBLOX again.
• Last Resort: Windows Reinstall: A clean install of Windows is a drastic step, but it’s sometimes necessary to resolve persistent software conflicts. Back up your important data before doing this! This will erase your hard drive and install a fresh copy of Windows. It’s like hitting the reset button on your entire PC. Once Windows is reinstalled, try installing Roblox again.

Error Code 280 can be a pain, but it’s usually solvable. By systematically working through these steps, you’ll increase your chances of getting back to building, playing, and exploring in the Roblox universe. If you’ve tried all of this and still can’t get in, it might be time to contact Roblox support directly – they might have some additional insights into your specific situation.
