Error Code 268
Roblox Roblox
Severity: ModerateWhat Does This Error Mean?
Error 268 means you were kicked from the game by the server or Roblox's anti-cheat system. This can happen if the game detected unexpected client behaviour, if you were using an exploit, or sometimes due to a false positive. If you were not cheating, rejoin the game.
Affected Models
- PC
- Mac
- Xbox One
- Xbox Series X/S
- iPhone
- iPad
- Android
Common Causes
- Roblox anti-cheat (Byfron/Hyperion) detected suspicious activity
- Using a third-party exploit or cheat tool
- Game-specific anti-cheat script kicked you
- Lag or desync causing the server to think you are exploiting
- Running software that anti-cheat mistakenly flags (screen recorders, accessibility tools)
How to Fix It
-
If you were NOT cheating: close and reopen Roblox, then rejoin.
False positives happen, especially with lag spikes that make your character teleport. Rejoining usually works fine.
-
Close any third-party tools that might trigger anti-cheat.
Screen overlay software, macro programs, and some accessibility tools can trigger the anti-cheat. Close them before playing.
-
Make sure your Roblox client is up to date.
An outdated client can trigger anti-cheat because the version does not match the server's expectations. Roblox usually updates automatically.
-
If you were using exploits: stop. Your account can be permanently banned.
Roblox's anti-cheat is getting stricter over time. Repeated error 268 kicks from anti-cheat will eventually lead to account termination.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will I get banned for error 268?
Not from a single occurrence. Error 268 is a kick, not a ban. However, repeated kicks from anti-cheat detection can lead to temporary or permanent bans.
What is Byfron anti-cheat?
Byfron (now called Hyperion) is Roblox's kernel-level anti-cheat system, introduced in 2023. It runs at a deep system level to detect exploits and cheats before they can affect the game.
