So i was playing unrated when my laptop froze and just stayed like that. Never happened before, usually play without issues. I force restarted.
Now I can't launch the game anymore. Error code VAL43
Things ive tried
- Restarting computer
- Reinstalling Vanguard (twice), did all the cmd commands from that other reddit post
- Reinstalling Valorant
- Starting Vanguard manually from services.msc
- Log out, login
- Deleting riot client folder then restoring it from recycle bin - got that from some reddit post
- Running riot client as admin and launching valorant from there
- Updating my graphics driver - kind of irrelevant but yeah
Nothing worked. I'm using windows 10. Help please
Also, i noticed this behavior
me: checks if vgc is running
vgc: running
me: happy, tries to launch valorant
valorant: error VAL43
me: goes to check vgc again
vgc: not running
