Hello!
i'll be helping you today
try making sure no apps messing with the installer are open
also can you tell me what you did so i can give you any insight on a fix?
@s
i originally had valorant installed on my windowsapps folder
💀
and i had a couple games on my c drive
well thats interesting but very easy fix
that i wanted to move over to d drive
i think i can provide you a fix just give me a second alright?
while installing minecraft to my d drive
it messed with my d drive
i think i know what to do
revoked my access to the folder entirely and overwrote everything inside
i also tried to uninstall vanguard but didnt read anything cuz i was too lazy
try this first if it goes wrong ping me here in this thread.
The problem is caused by Riot Vanguard, so to fix it, delete Vanguard from your computer and reinstall it.
First, delete the valorant applications in control pannel - programs - uninstall programs

Restart your computer then navigate to C:\Program Files\Riot Vanguard and delete the entire folder. You will need administrator access for this step.
Reinstall valorant. It should say that it is downloading Vanguard again.

Uninstalling and Disabling Riot Vanguard
Perhaps you need to disable Vanguard to run a particular program, or maybe you've decided to hang up your weapons and bow out of VALORANT. It's important to know how to both turn off Vanguard and u...
and also delete any folders related to VALORANT
and also if any of this doesnt work (eg you dont have access and what not) in this situation i would make a new partition on my drive thru the Hard drives and partitions app and install valorant on that
of course thats just me and if you dont want to do that im sure theres a fix to your issue
in any case if you have any issue or questions you can ping me here
good luck @s !
tried it, however even before i restarted all the traces of any valorant files were already gone
including vanguard
and the same error occurs
i dont feel like making a new partition
i contacted riot support and they told me to upload logs but there isnt anything to upload because everything is literally gone
but for some reason my system still thinks its there
think partition is the only option.
