Launcher won't open - no error messages

[Zaelryn]

I am unnable to start the game.

I start the launcher, or run ffxivboot.exe and the gray screen with game name appears. After a few seconds the screen disappears but the launcher doesn't load. There are no error messages.

All drivers are up to date, I tried rebooting several times and there are no background overlays.

I am sending the system info bellow:

[Dynratygus]

Good morning and thank you for the reply.

How long have you been experiencing this issue? Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game?

Thank you visiting the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums

[Zaelryn]

How long have you been experiencing this issue?

The issue is happening ever since the new launcher was released. It seems to occur on and off again, the launcher would start again after a reboot, but it seems to be happening more often and rebooting was not working anymore.

Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game?

Following your suggestion, I uninstalled the game and reinstalled. When I opened the launcher the same problem occurrred, it didn't open and I couldn't download the game.

Later I tried again and then the launcher opened. I downloaded the game and was able to play.

This morning, right after turning on the pc for the first time, the launcher wouldn't open again. I restarted the pc and then the launcher was able to start. So, the reinstall doesn't seem to have really helped since the error still occurs at random.

Here are again the system settings now that the launcher is running:

[Einmimiria]

Thank you for the reply Zaelryn.

The issue sounds like it could be connection related. I'd suggest trying some of the following:

1) If you are using a wireless connection, try connecting with an Ethernet cable.

2) Make sure your anti-virus/firewall has the appropriate exceptions for Final Fantasy XIV
