# NFA Loader

> Step-by-step setup for the NFA account loader, including required files, key activation and common connection fixes.

Use this guide to prepare Windows, download the NFA Loader and activate the key
delivered with your order.

  Follow the steps in order. Missing a required file or entering the wrong key
  can prevent the loader from starting correctly.

## 1. Install the required files

Install both Windows components before opening the loader:

* [Visual C++ Redistributable (x64)](https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x64.exe)

<Note>
  Restart your computer after installing the required files if Windows asks you
  to do so.

  <Accordion title="The key says expired or invalid">
    Fully close the loader and open it again. The key should redeem
    automatically on the next launch.

    If the message remains, open **Command Prompt as administrator**, run the
    command below and then restart your computer:

    ```powershell theme={null}
    ipconfig /flushdns
    ```
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="The loader cannot connect">
    Download and connect to [Cloudflare WARP](https://one.one.one.one/), then
    open the loader again. Also make sure a VPN, proxy, firewall or antivirus is
    not blocking the connection.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="The loader does not open">
    Confirm that both required files are installed, restart Windows and run the
    loader again. Re-download the loader if the file was interrupted or removed
    during download.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="I cannot find my NFA key">
    Check the email address used at checkout and your customer panel order
    history. If the order is marked as delivered but no key is visible, open a
    support ticket and include the order ID.
