[X] My Assistant

My client (44862) has been unable to log in since the last shutdown. It keeps prompting for my client id and key but after I enter them, the client fails saying authentication failed with error code FAIL_STARTUP_LOOP. The client id and key are identical to those on my h@h settings page.
Tried resetting client key but it didn't work.
Any idea why this is happening?

... (same thing)

H@H version is 1.6.4 but doesn't work either on 1.6.3.

FAIL_STARTUP_LOOP means your client has been spamming startup requests and was therefore temporarily blocked, usually due to broken startup scripts that ignore errors and just retry in an infinite loop. Wait more than 15 minutes then try again. (Trying earlier will reset the timer.)

I also encountered the same problem, and even after resetting the key and attempting to reconnect, it still didn't work. I've read the wiki as well, but I couldn't find an explanation for this error. Now I understand where the issue lies. I tried registering for a wiki account, but it seems that I can't edit directly. If someone sees this message and happens to have an account with editing permissions, they can update the information at the following link:

Please update with the following content:
