Error code TFMR0100 is a connection issue that occurs whenever you try to load into a lobby in THE FINALS, appearing after you fail to connect to the match. If your internet is secure and reliable, then this is likely an issue on Embark’s side.

Connection errors can be caused for a variety of reasons, including a mass influx of players. Still, there are several methods you can try to get into a game faster. First, if you are using a VPN, you need to disable it. THE FINALS players have found VPNs to be the root of various performance and connectivity issues.

Next, you should test your internet connection to ensure that the issue is not coming from your side. If the issue still persists, then you should verify your game files. You can do this following the instructions below:

  • Open your Steam Library
  • Go to Settings and select Properties
  • Click Installed Files
  • Select Verify Integrity of game files

As a last resort, you can always restart your computer or uninstall and re-install THE FINALS. Just remember, error codes relating to connection issues rarely have user-side fixes and typically just require time and attention from the developer.

We can likely expect Embark to fix this issue, along with a variety of other error codes, in the coming months of the game’s initial release.
