Riot client issue

Every time I try to play valorant through epic games and the riot client I have to completely uninstall them reinstall riot client and valorant or it will just icon on the task bar in the bottom but when I click on it nothing happens and the only way I’ve found that works is to completely uninstall riot client then reinstall it and valorant then I’ll have to do it all over if I close riot client or turn off my pc

Also by uninstalling I mean that i have to go and delete the files from file explorer then in appdata using run then having to delete the file location again @Talonted Gamer

You have to connect the device that needs the firmware update to an actual cable For example let's say you have a mouse, Connect that mouse via it's cable
Extinxt
Extinxt3mo ago
I only got the mobo and the keyboard I the keyboard is plugged in rn
Saucywan
Saucywan3mo ago
If the keyboard is currently plugged in Make sure it is using the wire You normally have to power off the device via its switch For it to actually use the connected wire
Extinxt
Extinxt3mo ago
I think it is
Saucywan
Saucywan3mo ago
Please check You can also confirm by unplugging it If the battery is turned off it will turn off
Extinxt
Extinxt3mo ago
Im unplugging it and its turning off
Saucywan
Saucywan3mo ago

Extinxt
Extinxt3mo ago
Yes

@Talonted Gamer let him uninstall through the proper way first, if there's any leftover registries, use Microsoft uninstall troubleshooter or any alternatives then go delete leftovers in program data folder and %localappdata% and finally reinstall
Extinxt
Extinxt3mo ago
How do I uninstall the proper way
Saucywan
Saucywan3mo ago
sorry That's very weird
Extinxt
Extinxt3mo ago
All good I think I’m using the cord for charging PlayStation controllers not the cord for the keyboard They both look the same Is there a uninstaller or something?

check custom views, administration events especially critical error events some warning events can be safely ignored
