    have you tried reinstalling windower(none dev)?? with this one you download on the main page this link http://windower.net/Windower4Setup.exe

    have you tried disabling your antivirus??(this is just a test and can be re-enabled after test) if it will load with av disabled you will need to add an exception

    are you on the admin account??

    what is your ffxi install folder (the default is)on 32 bit systems C:\Program Files\PlayOnline on 64 bit systems its C:\Program Files (x86)\PlayOnline

     

    if yes to the above then the only thing i can think of is

    1. your updates for windower were bad -- to try and fix delete the windower/updates folder then run windower again

    2. for some reason something on your comp does not like windower

      Another thing you may want to do is make sure your drivers are up to date. There have been some cases of drivers interfering with Windower.

            Not sure if anyone is still using this post, but having the windower crash issue on 8.1 as well in what looks like the same place.  This started after the last update.  Prior to the January update I had no issues running windower on my computer.
