Picture the scene: you’ve opened theFinal Fantasy XIVLauncher, you press play, and an error box pops up containing hard to decipher details and a mysterious URL. You can’t get in to play, but what can you do to resolve this issue?
There are a few things to try to fix theFFXIVscript error, some of which are more technical than others. It’s worth noting that simply waiting for a while and letting the issue resolve itself is a viable solution, as it usually does within the same day. However, if you’re in a hurry, here are a few troubleshooting fixes that may help you fix theFFXIVScript Launcher Error.
Try closing and restartingFFXIVto fix the Script Error
I hate to be that person, but have you tried turning it off and on again? If you’re playing through Steam, try exiting the Steam client through the task bar and opening it again, as well. Some users see to indicate this is all it takes to fix the issue.
Whitelist the URL from theFFXIVerror
This is where things can get a little technical, but not quite as technical as the next option.
This may or may not fix the issue, but if not, you might need to head for the last resort or simply wait it out.
Uninstall and reinstallFFXIV/Steam
Like I said, this is absolutely a last resort and should only be done when nothing else is working, or the issue hasn’t resolved itself. Many people who have encountered the script error have reported that this does indeed fix the issue, although it’s probably not a viable option if you encounter it fairly often.
