VAN -79 error
when I try to load up valorant it says VAN -79 error and I tried to google how to fix it but it didn't work as vgc keeps turning off even though I turn it on automatically and it doesn't let me manually enable it

- Open the Task Manager > Details tab
- End the task on all VALORANT, Riot Client and VANGUARD-related apps/services
- Open the Control Panel > Uninstall a Program
- Uninstall Riot VANGUARD
- Open CMD as Admin and type these commands:
- sc delete vgc
- sc delete vgk
- Navigate to your C: Drive, then Program Files
- Find the VANGUARD folder and delete it
- Open the Riot Client and click update
- Restart your computer after the update
After you’re done with that:
- Press Windows key + R
- Type services.msc
- Look for vgc
- Right-click on vgc > Properties
- Change the startup type to automatic
- Start the services (if not started already)
We will be waiting for your response, thank you.

Experiencing the same issue.
The main culprit is:
"Windows could not start the vgc service on Local Computer.
Error 1 : Incorrect function. "
Nothing is fixing this.
