Can't uninstall or update Valorant

When I go into Valorant it sends me to the riot client I click update but nothing happens, it says loading but nothing happens. If I try to uninstall it it says can't uninstall because the game is running but I closed everything with task manager, with the arrow key everything, I restarted my PC so it would 100% be closed but still when I try to uninstall it says it's opened. I really don't see any way anything I try to do it keeps saying I can't uninstall because it's running even tho it's not running. I would do a PC reset but I have important files and want to know if there is another way to fix this issue.

In the pictures it's what pops up when I try to uninstall or update. If anyone knows how to fix this I will be forever thankful to you ❤️
