Windows 10 Compatibility

[Morsmordie]

Like many have said in the thread, I've been running Windows 10 since it launched (upgraded from Windows 7) and I've never had any issues running the game. As a matter of fact, I've seen a slight increase in FPS in directX 11 but that could be the newer display drivers at play, not Windows 10 specifically.

As for official support, I'm pretty sure Square Enix doesn't officially support it just yet but you should have no trouble running the game. I wouldn't be surprised if they officially start supporting it come Patch 3.1

I've had some issues with Windows 10 and ffxiv but nothing that makes it unplayable.

First I had the issue with not saving my username, but I set ffxiv as a trusted site which fixed it.

I've had an issue where my game will occasionally freeze for like 0.00001 seconds, not that big of a deal and a barely notice it but it did get me killed in Titan ex once.

The last issue is the game bar, first time I used the game bar it worked, but any time using it after that it just gives me an error message that says it was unable to change my settings and to try again later.

I've had an issue where my game will occasionally freeze for like 0.00001 seconds.

I've run into this as well here and there. It's very sporadic and I've gotten such stutters that have lasted anywhere from a barely perceptible microsecond to lasting a few seconds, the latter being super rare.
I'm still tinkering to try to minimize such issues.

The big one that got me was that Win10 completely f'd up my wireless connection. It went from running smoothly on Win7 Pro to pretty much nonfunctional on Win10 Pro. I of course cleaned out all old drivers for my wireless device, installed the necessary new Win10 certified drivers and all that but still my speed was crap. Started messing with network device settings, changing some and then running a speed test, rinse repeat until I was getting the best results I could.
Most of the kinks seem to be worked out but I still get lag hiccups every now ansld then, so I'm still looking into possibilities.

Been using Windows 10 since the insider preview and I can't say I've come across either of these bugs. It's likely not W10 related.

Same, WIN10 here no issues at all

Win10 x64 pro. Upgrade install (aka not a clean install). Minor issue is one slight pause 30ish minutes into the game. Just one though. Another issue is Intel graphics causes blue screen when using a second monitor with it. New drivers from Intel seemed to have cured it.

I've had some issues with my HD7950 running too hot, and the new build broke controller support entirely, but I've been using windows 10 since they put out the developer alpha. The game running poorly has been the least of my worries. If you're on the release build just keep your drivers up to date and you'll be fine.

I've had issues playing the game, as sometimes I'm just doing a leve and my computer instantly freezes, so I have to force my computer to shutdown completely. I don't know what causes it. It never happened on Windows 8.1.

The last issue is the game bar, first time I used the game bar it worked, but any time using it after that it just gives me an error message that says it was unable to change my settings and to try again later.

Someone finally found a fix for this on Reddit!

Press Windows key + R and type regedit. Go to:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER
system
GameConfigStore
Children
-find the folder in here that contains ExeParentDirectory C:\Program Files (x86)\SquareEnix\FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn\game

There should be an item in the same folder called arguments, delete it and the gamebar will work on FFXIV again.

For the brief two weeks or so that I used W10, I had no issues with running FFXIV on it.

However I have since reverted back to W8, due to W10 being a steaming pile of ass regardless.
