I was able to play once and then closed the game to take a break and I get back on to it again
check if the Vanguard service and driver are working fine
run cmd as administrator
Type:
1) sc query vgc
2) sc query vgk

Well sorry that's the best I can help you with...
You may have updated one of the drivers which is causing this problem
Have you tried to contact the official support through the site?
Sorry I couldn't help you out...
You can try to reinstall vanguard
By deleting it, when you run Valorant again, it will download automatically
But I don't know if this will solve the problem
ill try that
Wait
hm?
bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING OFF
bcdedit /set nointegritychecks off
before deleting vunguard type those in cmd after running it as administrator
then delete vanguard
keeps saying error
