Unable to Access playvalorant.com or Open Valorant
Hello,
I have been experiencing issues with accessing the playvalorant.com website on my PC. I receive an error that says, "can't reach this page" (ERR_CONNECTION_CLOSED), despite trying multiple browsers and network troubleshooting steps.
Here are the steps I have tried:
Disabled proxy settings
Changed DNS to Google's public DNS (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4)
Cleared SSL state and reset network settings
Checked firewall settings to ensure Valorant and Riot Games are not blocked
Reinstalled Riot Vanguard (anti-cheat)
Disabled IPv6 and reset network drivers
Despite all these efforts, the issue persists, but I am able to access the website on my phone and other devices. Could you please assist me in resolving this?
I already reset my entire pc twice and the problem keeps arising

@Rachel \
i reset my pc twice and the same problem came back
without me installing vpn
i lit just had val installed

Hmm your ISP could just be blocking :val_SusgeNoted:
@Riikota do you have the game currently installed?
yes
So, what happens when you try to run the game?
i tried mobile hotspot it still didnt work
on other device with the same network it does work
i can open it on my phone, laptop
except for my pc
should i just screenshare or sum
Show screenshot or explain what happens
alr

as u can see my sign in options have been reduced to username and pass
no google, xbox
etc etc
What did your create your acc with
if i try and sign in with a acc

now it gets more annoying
Hmm
try this
netsh int ip resetipconfig /releaseipconfig /renewipconfig /flushdnsnetsh winsock resetnetsh advfirewall reset
if u look at my first msg
you can see what i tried
:Killjoy_Think:
And you’re 100% certain you are not running any vpn?
yes
as i stated my pc is completely clean
seeing as i reset it twice
to play the game
hold on brb got to restart
ok i restarted
trying to open game
same thing
well i know i need play valorant to sign in
idk why the site refuses to connect tho
and something triggers it seeing as i reset my pc twice alr
and the problem keeps coming back after a day or 2
So it’s working now?
no
for it to work i need to reset my pc again
Hmm ok wait
and then the problem will come back
and then i have to reset my pc again
Do this:
Press windows key
Search “msconfig”
And open “System Configuration”
Head to “Services” tab
Check “Hide all Microsoft services”
And then “Disable all”
And find “vgc” and enable that only
Open “Task Manager”
Then head to “Startup Apps”
And disable all
Then enable all riot related
Then restart your pc
this is all i have rn

Disable them
Leave Vgc only
alr
restarting again
didnt work
ig its a network issue
if the play val site doesnt work
* do these steps pls, even if it you did it before
i don't seem to have this function
the random hardware address one
Skip
Do next
metered connection was off
so thats not it
i set it to priv
still doesnt work
Do the following steps as well
Command prompts and all
u think its something like this?

i did
in order
any other site works
epic games
steam
the normal riot games site works
its just play valorant
thats tweaking
Have i been abandoned
@Saucywan :val_Prayge:
Same network works on laptop/phone but not on his pc
And no vpn either

download warp 1.1.1.1
and try with it

am i supposed to restart my pc first?
restart your pc
what the hell

you got problem with your DNS
go task manager
startup
disable everything
keep only riot and vangaurd
did that
restart your pc
when you load again
open the arrow down right and show ss of it
sure

okay
start your game
didn't work
have you turend off your network for 5 minutes and start it again ?
check dms rq
What's happening?
Sorry I was busy with family
You know what
You maybe didn't set your DNS properly
well something is wrong with my dns i think
Visit 192.168.0.1 on a browser
Set your dns in your router settings
Not on ur pc or phone
but if its not my pc how come i can run val on my laptop
and open play val on my phone
but on my pc i cant
after i reset my pc
it works for a while
Try changing your router dns first
Maybe someone blocked ur pc on router from accessing riot games or game server idk
he had vgc disabled
see that would make sense
his riot cilent taking ages to open
but how come after i full reset my pc
U reset ur mac address too maybe
Thats a weird problem u got there. Never heard of this
if u search up why can't i connect to play valorant online
some have the same prob
idk how they fixed it
he cant even have access to his router
😭
i think someone changed setting on his router and got it blocked
ah
vpn
ez
or proxy
idk
but he try to access to his router
he got this

did you check if that's the default gateway?
@Riikota Open cmd
Enter
send photo
yes it is
no but listen
if val is block
ed
which it was at some point
but everything was
bc someone decided to tamper with the router settings
it wouldnt explain why i can openj val on my laptop\
on my phone
and any other device
@Riikota do this
did that
if u scoll all the way up u can see what i did to try and fix it
only thing that fixed it was THE GREAT RESET
had to wipe my legend of zelda save
;-;
That’s not something to try
That gives info
To look at
ah
ima dm it
Solution
problem fixed . some setting were changed and opera gx vpn prob was on . fix restore point
ITS FIXED
IM FREEEEE
TY MOMO
Np
…
Who in their right sense of mind installs OPERA FIRST after a windows reinstall
😂 😂
Its fixed at least
Bro he kept complaining about how he reset pc 4 times and same prob persists
But every time he installs opera with VPN first thing LOLOL
Welp
After restore point first thing he did open oprera 😂😂
