Greetings again ChoDerecho,

Thanks for getting back to us. Have you tried disabling any anti-virus software/Firewall (or allowing exceptions to be made for FINAL FANTASY XIV)? I would also recommend performing a clean boot as a start to ensure that there aren't any other programs that could be conflicting with the game. To perform the clean boot, open your Task Manager, and select the 'Start Up' tab. From there, disable all applications listed and restart the PC. Once you have restarted the PC, please try running the game as an administrator to see if that helps.

Thank you for visiting the FINAL FANTASY XIV Technical Support Forum!
