How to start and stop vanguard manually?

Whenever i dont play valorant i would like to not have it running but when i do decide to play i also dont want to have to keep restarting my pc each time. Is there any manual way to start vanguard?

no it’s a kernel level anticheat you need to restart in order to enable/disable vanguard

it means that you were "exploiting" a bug within vanguard?

was it considered an exploit? if u google it u find tons of results showing the guide and never had i seen anything mentioned such things.

I mean if you look at it that way, if you look up valorant cheats, you will find them openly sold as well.

you were probably disabling the vgc service which doesn’t fully disable Vanguard you could've also disable vgtray in your task manager but vanguard will still be running

it's talking about the tpm2.0 + secure boot restriction not any pc problems (black screen, blue screen...)
