valorant error code 7

it's error code 5 not 7 sorry i've tried re-launching, re-installing the game twice, re-installing vanguard, logging out from all devices, enabling 2fa, closing unnecessary background apps and tabs, checking my e-mails to see if my account was suspended and found nothing, my drivers are updated, performed a clean boot please help this is my last resort i really don't understand what is going on
Solution:
If not then open control panel then uninstall programs and uninstall vanguard
