I've tried multiple things and nothing worked yet, I'm happy to try everything you guys recommend even if it's stuff I already tried.
Press windows key + r
Type regedit
Enter
And go to this path
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options
Then show ss
One of the things I already tried, its at 0
Did you restart your pc after changing the value ?
Yes
And I’m assuming it still doesn’t work
Correct
Is your game installed on an external drive ?
Nope
;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.
I've also reinstalled both Valorant, The Client and Vanguard
Try this
Oh
Just did this before I opened up this post
I dont know why its happening, Yesterday I was able to play Valorant just fine, and today this happend
@Icarus Anything else I can try?
Have you tried running the game as admin?
Usually it’s either IFEO or game installed on external drive the reason it pops up :val_SusgeNoted:
Yup
IFEO?
The devoverride thing
Ah I see
I'm now going to try and install it on my 2nd SSD, which I used to have it on years ago
Result, also not working
Did you reinstall or move the game
Yup
Which 1 did you do
Reinstalled
Or moved the game files
I'm now going for a full clean install, deleting all Riot Games, Riot Client and Vanguard, and deleting ALL riot related folders
Reinstalled
Result
Did not work
@Icarus
I did the complete reinstall
And this got reset as well, so I changed it back to 0
and its working now
