@Saucywan I tried reinstalling valorant, i deleted all the riot folders and valorant folders and when i tried reinstalling, it is stuck on "Update" button. I have tried everything from deleting Vanguard, deleting the client, everything alltogether, deleting riot files from appdata/local. Each time i download the client again and try to download valorant, I am stuck with the "Update" button endlessly spinning and nothing seems to start downloading. PFA, My logs and the screenshot of the "Update" logo spinning endlessly. On top of that I also tried reinstalling graphic drivers and downloading a older version and still doesn't work Since it didn't work, i tried deleting the Valorant folder under riot games. It had only valorant/live/ and nothing inside it. Now the update button turned into a install button but still keeps spinning. Download doesn't start.

This is a network issue have you customized or changed anything about your network on windows Also make sure to check your antivirus logs to make sure it isn't stopping it even if it is disabled it's sometimes still does it
