Your boot folder is corrupted due to your computer powering down in the middle of the file/program being accessed (specifically ffxivconfig.exe).

You will need a fresh copy of the boot folder (Google "Boot Folder Final Fantasy XIV", or search the XIV Reddit sub forums) where you will need to drop it where the old one is and overwrite the old (you also need full R/W permissions as the folder is in Program Files x86). Once you copy/replace it over restart the client. It may update the client or push you right into the game.

Mechanical Drives are much more susceptible to these kind of errors as the needle can skip on the disk making valleys which cause bad sectors which corrupt files (or the power kills of the disk in the middle of a read/write making the file illegible).

Try a system restore before the date of the update.

other options.
right click your FFXIV icon run as administrator.
or
Uninstall and delete all registry files and re-install game as administrator.
or
Reset firewall settings after system restore and allow ffxiv see if that helps these are probably the only options I got for you.

ive done all that besides system restore due to the last system restore point was the day before i got my graphics card and power supply so cant do that due to drivers and other dls wont be installed id be screwed..

[HeroSamson]

its happen to me.
as for power supply has nothing to do with system restore.
graphic drivers can be re-installed and fixed
uninstall game and use ccleaner for all the left over registry files.

it happen to me I had to reset everything from firewall to uninstalling game to fix it even digging in regedit. /ipconfig and flushdns also in cmd but since then all is well.
