Dreaded 6d error

[Fessadil]

As with many others, after the 5.2 patch I am now encountering the error after logging in and hitting the "Play" button:



Everything was working fine up until I stopped playing around midnight Eastern time on the 17th, after installing the update the morning of the 18th I began encountering the error.

So far I've tried:

• I've rebooted a number of times.
• I am not using MacType/Steam/Nvidia Geforce Experience either. Though I have tried making sure I didn't have Steam running, just to be on the safe side.
• I've tried launching as administrator.
• I've tried clearing my FFXIV settings folder in my Documents/My Games folder.
• I had my significant other try logging in (she didn't have any problems with the update on her computer), but she encounters the same issue trying to log in on my laptop.
• I've tried reverting the launcher as suggested.
• I've tried switching off DirectX11.
• I've disabled full screen optimizations on the executable.
• I've tried starting the game with my external monitor, keyboard, mouse and gamepad removed
• FFXIV is installed on the same drive as Windows.
• I went into the Task Manager "Startup" tab and disabled everything there and rebooted.
• My laptop is not overheating, as it barely requires any resources to run the launcher.
• I am not overclocking anything.

The only thing that has worked so far is to create an entirely new Windows user and running FFXIV from this new user account. However, this is an extremely suboptimal solution as it essentially means having to painstakingly recreate my primary user account settings. I might as well wipe my computer and start over at that point.

Update: Launching through GeForce Experience also resolves the issue. I would still prefer a solution that doesn't require a launcher on top of a launcher, but this is livable for now.

Let me emphasize again, nothing on my system changed but the installation of the 5.2 update between when FFXIV worked and when it didn't. There is zero doubt that this is a bug (or a regression as those of us in the business would say) in FFXIV.

Here is my system information:

I had same issue after the patch so i tried literally everything and stumbled upon your post and did some workaround about

"The only thing that has worked so far is to create an entirely new Windows user and running FFXIV from this new user account. However, this is an extremely suboptimal solution as it essentially means having to painstakingly recreate my primary user account settings. I might as well wipe my computer and start over at that point.".

So i found out that if you remove your windows account from administrator group then error disappears.

This sounds like a fix that could work for me! Could you please detail this a little more? I also have this dreaded error

EDIT: Also have admin group account.

Win+R > type "lusrmgr.msc" without quotes > Users > double-click on your user account > Group membership > delete "Administrator" group > restart pc.
Before that i recommend to activate built-in Administartor account just in case. Do it by double-click on Administartor account and uncheck "Account is disabled".
This is for windows 10 pro but should work for win7/8 as well.
btw do it at your own risk since something might broke still it works fine for me

Ive found hitting the PC with a hammer makes the error go away.

Much less drastic workaround:run the FFXIV launcher from GEForce Experience.

Yeah, doesn't fix error for me

I haven't tried removing my primary account from the administrative group, to know what that does, but surprisingly enough using GeForce Experience resolved the issue for me. I didn't try that sooner given that early on some people said not using it solved their problem. Still fixing the game itself would be best so we don't have to launch the launcher through another launcher.

I've tried it all too but still error , please fix this problem not quest or forum

You know it's interesting you mention administrator group. I am pretty sure when this mess happened I had discord suddenly acting up and having trouble with administrator privileges (because XIV had it and discord didn't, or something like that). I am going to give the geforce experience a try (it makes me wonder if maybe the experience isn't the problem in some way?) after my game is done reinstalling.

Also I echo your sentiment Fessadil. Something seems clearly amiss when I was able in certain cases to walk around, to mount (Character and mount being invisible) and then dismount, to open my inventory but NOT my character panel or my currency menu. Where I could type in say and party chat but any /emote I did did not show up (The character did not wave, dance). Even though the character could walk around.

To me that suggests a software problem more than a hardware problem. I have never heard of a GPU causing that sort of thing.
