VAN 185 error :(
Hello guys,
I’m keep getting the VAN 185 error and I’ve tried everything to fix it but nothing is working.
I uninstalled and installed the game again, restarted my WiFi… idk what else to do.
Can you guys help me ?

It didn't work, just got the error again.

Does it disconnect and show the error mid game or on launch ?
Open C:\Program Files\Riot Vanguard
Right click on the Logs folder > compress to and zip file
