Directx crashes on load in

Every time I try to load into my character, I get a directx11 crash if the game is running in directx11, or a directx crash if the game is running in directx9. I've updated drivers, clean booted, repaired game files, reinstalled the game, and everything that has been recommended, but the problem persists. I can't play the game at all and this is wasting my time trying to fix it and my money that I spent on a sub.

Disable the overlay programs, see if that helps.... DirectX doesn't seem to like it when more than one DX version is controlling the display at the same time. Most overlays use DX to render and they are likely using a newer DX version than the game client.
Shut off completely OneDrive while running the game.
Also, FF14 is known to sometimes have issues when ran off a drive that isn't the OS drive on a windows machine, so free up a bit of space on your C drive and re-install the game there.
Lastly.... "FF Logs Uploader 5.8.9"..... that is part of a program that is against the FF14 ToS

It is? My friend who got me into the game told me to download it, but I don't know what it does

Good morning and thank you for posting in the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums

We apologize in the delay in our response to your concern. Does the game crash if it is installed on the C drive? Additionally does the issue occur if a cleanboot is done? This will prevent any programs from starting up when the starting when the computer first boots up. This can end up having adverse effects on the game when these programs are running in the background. To perform a clean boot for Windows 10: Open the task manager (CTRL+SHIFT+ESC) and select the 'Start up' Tab. Disable everything here and restart the PC.

Thank you for visiting the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums.

Yes, it crashes on the C: drive. Yes, it occurs on a clean boot. It even occurs after clean reinstalling all drivers and the entire game itself

Good morning! Thank you for posting in the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums.
We apologize for the delay in response to this issue.

Please try the following:

- Please disable OneDrive if it is set to active and make sure the game is not launching from within this application.
- Update and reinstall your sound drivers (if applicable).
- Please be sure to disable or remove any overlays (Discord, Steam, NVIDIA etc.) as they may interfere with startup.
- Make sure that the Windows OS is fully updated.

Thank you for visiting the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums!
