Nvm Try launching the .exe as an admin

Saucywan
Saucywan5mo ago
Launch though riot client

Have you messed with the admin settings or compatibility settings?
thepoetfrommars
thepoetfrommars5mo ago
there was a troubleshooter pop in which i think compatibility settings was applied. But i am facing this same thing as soon as i installed the update Should i fresh install the game and try ur security settings?
Saucywan
Saucywan5mo ago
Yes
thepoetfrommars
thepoetfrommars5mo ago
third time. lets go. see u in 30

Delete everything having to do with riot Vanguard, Riot client, Valorant
mythea
mythea5mo ago
the installer will do it for u well since u are going to reinstall i recommend u to do a clean install delete all riot games and valorant or any related folders after u uninstalled leftovers in %localappdata%, c:\program data\ files in program files folder should be removed iirc only the root folder will be left there

and then gone same thing one thing i noticed is once i try to launch valorant, my razor central app tries to clear some ram in the background. is it related?
mythea
mythea5mo ago
no it does that becuz it detected a game was started also that's cortex, not central app
