Riot Client black screen while opening Valorant
Soo for the past few days my riot client just opens with a black screen. Tried a lot of things off of youtube but none worked. Occasionally I get the chance for the sign in page. I log in and repair valorant and then attempt to play. But in these cases the valorant just gets stuck at loading screen. Despite this the client itself stays black most of the time.
Any help?

Open task manager > performance tab
Show ss in cpu tab
As for riot client black screen: do you have any 3rd party anti virus software?
I do use quick heal, but doesn't look like thats the problem? I have been using it for months and valorant had worked fine back then.
Give me a sec,
Press windows key
Type installed apps and open it
From there look for AMD software and delete it
After that
https://www.amd.com/en/support/download/drivers.html
go here^ and download Windows driver
And make sure all drivers are selected during installation
Try this first
If it doesn’t work, we’ll try reinstalling nvidia drivers the same way
Gotcha, will update you after it installs.
Is there a need to restart? I tried opening clients twice, and no black screen yet. But the valorant stuck on loading screen still persists.
Yes restart after installing the driver
What’s your gpu model
Show ss of that in task manager
The black screen is back.
If installing amd drivers didn’t help, try this:
download and install DDU: https://www.wagnardsoft.com/DDU/download/DDU%20v18.1.3.2_setup.exe
open DDU and on the right select
GPU
NVIDIA
then click on clean and restart.
After it restarts, download and install nvidia drivers: https://us.download.nvidia.com/Windows/581.29/581.29-notebook-win10-win11-64bit-international-dch-whql.exe
^ restart after installing drivers then try launching the game
It still continues.
Can you try disabling your AV temporarily and try the game
