Error Code VAL 7

I have just updated the game and every time I launch the game I get this error and it says unable to connect to server and asks me to close game and restart the client! I have tried restarting Valorant and my pc several times and I have also reconnected to the WiFi (which is functioning perfectly fine) but I still get this error, what should I do? Can someone pls help me? Thanks :)
Solution
The VAL 7 error code can either indicate an account suspension or a network issue. Here are the steps you can take to address it:

  1. **Check for Account Suspension:**
    • Verify that there are no suspension-related messages in your email or the VALORANT support site.
  2. **Network Troubleshooting:**
    • Open Command Prompt as an administrator and run the following commands individually:
      netsh int ip reset
      ipconfig /release
      ipconfig /renew
      ipconfig /flushdns
      netsh winsock reset
    • Restart your computer after running these commands.
  3. **Firewall Configuration:**
    • Make sure VALORANT is allowed through your firewall. Refer to this guide for detailed steps.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, please consider submitting a ticket to Riot Games support for further assistance: Riot Games Support.

If you've encountered Error Code 29, chances are something has gone awry in the interplay between VALORANT and Windows Firewall. This can be further complicated if you're running antivirus software...
