Keep queueing

One solution people are finding is to keep queueing into games. If you keep trying, eventually, the error may go away on its own.

You can also try closing out of the game and rebooting. By doing that, you can bypass any bug that existed in your current playthrough.

Check your internet connection

Next, make sure your internet connection is secure. I always recommend running an ethernet cable to your device to ensure the best quality internet. If you’re unable to do that, you may need to look into the 10 best PC accessories which includes a nifty ethernet Wi-Fi device.

Check if the servers are down

If you’re having issues, it may be because the servers are down. Check the server status to make sure there aren’t any active problems that could be giving you errors.

Unlink and relink your Steam account

As a final result, I recommend unlinking and relinking your Steam account to Embark Studios. I say you should save this as a last resort because if you do this, you’ll lose all your progress and XP (which we all know is a slow and grindy process in The Finals). However, it may be the only fix available currently as many people on Steam discussions have said this works.

Head over to the Embark Studios website. Log in and go to connected platforms. Unlink your Steam account and then relink it. You’ll lose all your XP, but you’ll remove the Account Restricted error and keep all the credits tied to the account.

Wait for Embark Studios to fix the error

If you don’t want to lose all your The Finals progress just to fix the Account Restricted error, I don’t blame you. Instead, I recommend waiting for Embark Studios to fix this error.

So far, they have been on top of patching bugs and errors, so it’s only a matter of time before they fix the Account Restricted error that’s plaguing you allowing you to get back in the game. While you wait, you might as well master all the ways to counter invisibility in The Finals.
