constantly getting van 84/val 5/van 185
recently (like a week ago) started getting this along with errors saying vanguard isn't initialized. it happens like every 30 minutes or so the moment i open val and usually happens while im in a game. searched online for answers, no solutions worked. tried reinstalling, but that only solved the problem for maybe 2 hours or so. is there anything i can do to fix this or is this a device problem?
also not sure if this is related but when this stuff started happening i also started getting frequent screen freezes every 5 seconds or so for around 10 minutes after launching val. no idea if this is correlated with the errors that have been happening

I'm also having this kind of problem, the game was fine a few hours ago, but just now when i started playing i keep getting connection error messages mid game and when i tried to re join back val freezes
first of all
clean your monitor
second
;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.
