Valorant takes too long to boot up.
As mentioned in the title, just a few days ago Valorant decided it wants to take 5 minutes to boot up in my laptop. At first I thought something went wrong and restarted my machine but the problem persisted. I waited the next time and it legit took 5 minutes to boot up.
Once I got in the game, I pressed play and tried selecting deathmatch. But the game modes wouldn't switch. As default I was on unrated tab but even there I couldn't queue and an error message popped up stating "ERROR Could not enter matchmaking".
But after a minute or so the game worked fine. So now I am at a point where I have to separate 10 minutes just for the game to start up and for it to decide when it wants to let me start matchmaking.
To be clear, everything worked fine a week ago and I have changed nothing since then and neither have there been any new updates in between. My machine is fairly new and gives me decent performance when in game. Loading into games after queuing is fast and I have no problem there. I also use an ethernet for network which runs fine in game.
I found most troubleshoot guides online recommending people who can't get into game after queueing to install the game on their ssd (which mine is already). I found one post on a forum which has the same problem as mine but they seem to have not gotten any fix either.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hey, so yesterday my game was freezing on loading screen and I've tried everything as restart computer reinstall valorant compatibility admin & disable fullscreen optimisations and still nothing fixed it, but today the game starts again but now I'm stuck on a solo group and cannot start queue, cannot change gamemode or do anything network-related
