We would like to recommend performing a Clean Boot on the desktop to see if the crashing continues. 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.

Hello there.

I just tried that. The crash I had today was another repetitive set of crashes upon loading back into the game (post character selection loading screen). For some reason AVG Antivirus did not want to be disabled, so I tried it with it enabled (still crashed), and then tried it after uninstalling AVG, banishing it to the shadow realm, and restarting the computer to remove all its files (also still crashed).

Also before today I found Windows had been telling lies that my graphic drivers were up to date. They were Aug of 2018 old. Sadly updating them did not fix this issue.

I know I asked it before, but is there some sort of graphics-related cache that could be cleaned out?

Next time it happens I'm going to try loading into a different game on steam and see if there's any crash, but I'm 90% certain at this point the crash is related primarily to FFXIV.
