Connection error Van-79

SOS, Everytime I attempt to open valorant, wether its from Riot Client or epic games, I would keep getting a black screen stuck onto my pc screen and u cant even close it with the only way to fix the black screen is restarting my pc. And even if it does work It would just keep saying "Error code VAN-79" "Connection error, Restart riot client." Please send help I am desperate. I will respond as fast as I can.

okay if nothing related to vanguard, riot client or valorant is running in the background then it should allow you to delete the folder 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 unless you already deleted it
