How to Delete Roblox Cache on PC & Mobile (Fix Texture Glitches)

We’ve all seen it: You join a server, and the floor is neon pink. Your character is headless. The menu buttons are just gray squares.

This isn’t a hack, and your graphics card isn’t dying. It’s a Corrupted Cache.

Roblox saves thousands of small files (images, sounds, scripts) on your device so it doesn’t have to re-download them every time you join Brookhaven. However, these files eventually get “rotten”—especially after the massive weekly updates on Wednesdays.

In January 2026, clearing your cache is the #1 proven fix for visual glitches, random crashes, and the dreaded “Infinite Loading” screen. Here is the safe, step-by-step method to scrub your files clean on every platform.

💻 PC (Windows) – The “Temp” Method

On Windows, Roblox hides its cache deep in your temporary files folder.

Close Roblox completely.
Press Windows Key + R on your keyboard to open the Run box.
Type %temp% and hit Enter.
- Note: Make sure you include the percentage signs.
You will see a messy folder full of random files. Look for a folder named Roblox.
Right-click the Roblox folder and select Delete.
- Tip: If it says “File in Use,” restart your PC and try again.
Empty your Recycle Bin.

Advanced Clear (For HTTP Errors): If deleting the Temp folder didn’t fix it, go deeper:

Press Windows Key + R.
Type %localappdata%\Roblox\Logs and delete everything inside.
This clears the connection logs which often fixes Error 277 or 279.

🍎 Mac (macOS) – The Library Scrub

Mac users, your cache is hidden in the User Library.

Open Finder.
In the top menu bar, click Go.
Hold down the “Option” (Alt) key. You will see a new option appear called Library. Click it.
Open the Caches folder.
Find the folder named com.roblox.RobloxPlayer.
Drag it to the Trash and empty the Trash.

🤖 Android – The Easy Button

Android makes this super simple. You don’t need to reinstall.

Open your phone Settings.
Go to Apps (or “Apps & Notifications”).
Find and tap on Roblox.
Tap on Storage & Cache.
CRITICAL STEP: Tap “Clear Cache” (The small trash can).
- WARNING: Do not tap “Clear Storage” or “Clear Data” unless you want to log out and lose your saved login info. Just clear the Cache.

📱 iOS (iPhone / iPad) – The “Reinstall” Force

Apple does not allow apps to have a “Clear Cache” button. It’s annoying, but you have to use the “Nuclear Option.”

Go to Settings -> General -> iPhone Storage.
Scroll down and find Roblox.
Option A (Offload App): This deletes the app data but keeps your settings. It’s faster but might not fix severe texture glitches.
Option B (Delete App): This is the only way to 100% clear the cache on iOS.
- Delete the app.
- Go to the App Store.
- Redownload Roblox.
- Log back in.

❓FAQ

Will I lose my Robux, Pets, or Worlds?

Absolutely Not. Your account data (Inventory, Robux, Adopt Me pets, Blox Fruits stats) is stored on Roblox’s Cloud Servers, not on your computer. Deleting the cache only removes temporary images on your device. It is 100% safe.

Will clearing the cache improve my FPS (Lag)?

Yes, but with a catch. Clearing the cache fixes “Stuttering” (travamentos rápidos) caused by the game trying to load corrupted files. However, the first time you join a game after clearing, it might load slightly slower because it needs to download fresh textures. After that initial load, your gameplay will be smoother.

Does this fix “Error Code 268” (Unexpected Client Behavior)?

Yes. This is the primary fix for Error 268. This error usually happens when Roblox detects “modified” files in your cache (even if you didn’t cheat). Clearing the temp folder forces the game to grab clean files, removing the kick message.

Will I be logged out of my account?

PC/Mac: No. Your login session is stored in cookies, not the temp cache folder.
Android: No, provided you tapped “Clear Cache” and NOT “Clear Data”.
iOS: Yes. Since you have to delete and reinstall the app, you will need to type your password again. Always make sure you know your password before uninstalling!

Does this delete my Screenshots or Screen Recordings?

No. Roblox saves screenshots and videos in a completely different folder (Pictures\Roblox on Windows). Touching the %temp% or AppData folder will not erase your memories or clips.

How often should I clear my cache?

You do not need to do this daily. We recommend clearing it:

Once a month for maintenance.
Immediately after a major Roblox update (usually Wednesdays) if you notice textures turning pink or black.
