how to change keybinds in locked roblox

Okay, so I’ve been messing around with Roblox lately, and I ran into this little snag. See, I like to customize my controls in games, makes things more comfy for me, you know? But in Roblox, when it’s locked, you’re kinda stuck with the default keybinds. Not cool. So I went on a mission to figure out how to change those keybinds even when Roblox is locked.

First thing I did was poke around in the Roblox settings. I went through all the menus, clicking on everything that looked like it might have something to do with keybinds. No luck there. It felt like Roblox was just laughing at me, keeping those settings hidden away.

So, I thought, maybe there’s something in the game files. I went digging through the Roblox folder on my computer. I opened up a bunch of files, mostly text files and stuff, looking for anything that mentioned “keybinds” or “controls.” It was like searching for a needle in a haystack, a really big and confusing haystack. I found some files that looked promising, but whenever I tried to change something, it didn’t seem to do anything in the game.

Then, I had a bit of a brainwave. I remembered that some programs let you change settings through a config file. It’s basically a file that tells the program how to run. Maybe Roblox had one of those? I did some more digging, this time specifically looking for files with names like “config” or “settings.” And guess what? I found one! It was called something like “GlobalBasicSettings” and it was in a folder called something with “version-” and a string of digits.

I opened up this file, and it was full of all sorts of settings. It took me a while to figure out which ones were for the keybinds, but after some trial and error, I found them. They were labeled things like “MoveForward” and “Jump,” and they had letters next to them, which I guessed were the keys they were bound to.

Now came the exciting part. I started changing the letters next to the keybind names. For example, I changed “MoveForward” from “W” to “I,” because I’m weird like that and prefer using IJKL for movement. I saved the file and launched Roblox. I loaded up a game, locked the controls, and held my breath.

And… it worked! I was moving forward by pressing “I” instead of “W,” even with the controls locked! I felt like a genius. I changed a few more keybinds, just to see if I could, and they all worked perfectly.

So, yeah, that’s how I figured out how to change keybinds in locked Roblox. It took some digging and some experimenting, but it was totally worth it. Now I can play Roblox exactly how I want, no matter what.

Here’s the gist of what I did:

• Found the config file: It was in the Roblox folder, in a subfolder labeled something with “version-“, and it was probably called “GlobalBasicSettings”.
• Opened the file: I used a simple text editor, like Notepad.
• Found the keybind settings: They were labeled with names like “MoveForward” and “Jump”.
• Changed the keybinds: I changed the letters next to the keybind names to the keys I wanted to use.
• Saved the file and launched Roblox: Boom, custom keybinds, even when locked!

It wasn’t super easy, but it wasn’t rocket science either. If you’re comfortable poking around in files and folders, you can probably figure it out too. Just be careful not to mess up anything important in those files, or you might break something!
