Valorant keeps crashing showing random error codes such as 185, 68, 84, 1068 etc.

1. Run as Admin: Always launch VALORANT and Riot Client as an administrator.
2. Update Drivers: Ensure your GPU and network drivers are up to date.
3. Repair Client: In Riot Client, go to settings and use the repair tool to fix any corrupted files.
4. Check Background Processes: Disable unnecessary software that could interfere with VALORANT, especially those with overlays (e.g., Discord, NVIDIA GeForce Experience).
5. Reinstall Vanguard: Uninstall Riot Vanguard through the control panel and then open VALORANT to reinstall it.
6. Firewall and Antivirus: Confirm that VALORANT and Vanguard are allowed through your firewall and antivirus software.
7. Account Differences: Since this only occurs on your main account, check if any account-specific settings differ (e.g., different in-game settings, skins, etc.).
