amm, i only log from my pc on it
and also the vanguard doesn't show up here

@Isabella✨
Hmm could you try reinstalling vanguard 1 more time? Try the following steps
;vgc
- 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.
Do all these steps and try the game
Did this 2 times and also went on riot games website and did full loging managment (log out from everywhere)
Did you do these exact steps including the cmd commands?
yes and on the cmd commands it showed fail
couldnt find
Hmm
Let’s try doing a clean boot
Press windows key
Search “msconfig”
And open “System Configuration”
Head to “Services” tab
Check “Hide all Microsoft services”
And then “Disable all”
And find “vgc” and enable that only
Open “Task Manager”
Then head to “Startup Apps”
And disable all
Then restart your pc
and i did that also
i got a ticket for it
but nothing worked
:val_HUH:

i will try this one more time and see what happens

Yeah no worries
Next step
now i can't find the VANGUARD folder in C
Also not a problem, it gets deleted when deleting vanguard from control panel
aight then
well that didnt work
ill try the next one
about the disable all startup apps do i also need to disable vgtray and RiotClientServices?
No leave those enabled
Okay
nothing worked
Solution
Not sure if it would work but try using a VPN
If you don’t have any use this

So this just worked but do i need to play constantly with it?
because right now with the vpn i have higher ping
Are you in a match currently
no
but now i can start match without having to be kicked
Ok
Don’t enter a match
Disconnect the VPN
and see if it disconnects you from the game
And if you’re completely sure it’s not gonna crash, you can enter a match
^ just wait in range or sum for sometime and see what happens
okay
thank you so much for the help! Appreciate it
