Close evry valorant,riot client and vanguard related apps/services
Open control panel

Navigate to ur C drive then program files and find vanguard folder and delete it.
Then open riot client and click update
Restart ur pc after the update.
Ok thanks I'll try that
And I dont see riot vanguard folder in my C drive where my valorant is installed.

@jidat
Did u restart once after doing all that?
Yes I did
could it be because I am on a cloud pc?
Open task manager
Then startup
Can u see vgx tray there?
yeah
Hm
Open cmd as admin
Type these commands
sc query vgc
sc query vgk
Show result
Hm yeah
Press win+r
Type services.msc
Look for vgc there
Right click on it
Then properties
Set startup type to automatic
And start it
Then apply and ok
Then restart pc
you know a fix?
Apply it without starting
What antivirus are u using?
windows antivrus i guess
should i turn it off?
done
Restart ur pc
Or the cloud pc i should say
Wait, are u even restarting that pc or u r restarting ur own?
I am clicking restart on the cloud pc and it says restarting then it restarts
Hmm
It might have stuff blocked from running like that
Cuz vanguard is not starting
Thats why its telling u to restart
When its restarted I can see it running in the background
vanguard
Where?
in the background
Open the game again
Well it wont let me
Even when i start from files
it just turns off
Do a clean boot with only vgc ticked
Press win+r
Type msconfig
Show photo
ticked? like you mean enabled for start up?
^
only vgc?
like can all the microsoft services be still running?
Show full thing
so?
BRO
Nvm
Apply and ok
its not starting anymore..
U hid all microsoft services right?
yes you can see that in the pic
Is it giving a black screen?
yeah
womp womp
Give it a minute
could be because the server is under maintainence so its taking some time to start
ah
its still frozen
Restart it
its a cloud pc and now its stuck on loading because i turned off majority of the servies
Those services shouldn't rly have an affect on that
Well i tried on my phone and I received an error code and i googled it and it says "if an issue occurs while cloud pc is updating. This includes both component updates and Windows updates on your cloud pc
I guess I turned off an updating service
