Did you manage to fix it? I’m experiencing the same thing
Open cmd as admin. Enter each command one by one. netsh int ip reset, ipconfig /release, ipconfig /renew, ipconfig /flushdns, netsh winsock reset
Please try this ^^
It does not work
Still says this
This is as soon as the game launch's?
Yes
Already tried “Open cmd as admin. Enter each command one by one. netsh int ip reset, ipconfig /release, ipconfig /renew, ipconfig /flushdns, netsh winsock reset”
Yes I know :D
Have you reinstalled valorant, riot client, and vanguard?
Yes, I think it’s a new bug, only recently I saw people making tickets about it on this server and also on Reddit
Yes, have you opened a ticket with riot support?
Yeah, around a day ago, did not receive a reply yet
Got it. Please just wait, Ill hopefully have an update in about 2 hours
Sure, thank you

Yes, its confimed to be a new error. Please make a ticket until I have something more :D
Do you know any solution? Since last night I can't log in because of the same error.
Support answered me, but their method did not work
Like I said, it’s a new error
It’s gonna take some trial and error
hey guys
any news about it?
Have you made a ticket?
making it rn
nothing yet?
I solved it, it turns out that the VGC service was stopped and I couldn't start it manually because it was giving me an error. What I did was to enter the following commands in CMD as administrator and restart the PC:
bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING OFF
bcdedit -set NOINTEGRITYCHECKS OFF
I don't know if this will work for you but that's what just worked for me.
Check in services if VGC is set to Manual or Automatic. If it is set to Manual you should right click on properties and change it to Automatic.
The problem is in the VGC service, can't start manually too, but the CMD is not resolving it
reinstall wnds
Wdym?
Windows.
Your OS
This one fixed it for me! 10/10 Thanks alot @Clean
Sorry, I don't have any permanent solution yet! Please tell me if you managed to fix the error
did not work
The ticket I made offered another solution which did not work
hi guys
anyone able to fix this?
Remove VGC Service and update The Valorant after removing
Do any of you still have the error?
yes
You made a ticket right?
Still having the error
Made the ticket, solutions did not work
This does not work, everyone already tried that, this is error code -79 (a new error code), not error code -81
For some people this may work on VAN-79, I did it, And It fixed my Error, I hope you find a fix soon for it aswell LeonBlaze
is their a solution yet? cuz i recently got this after riot helped me clean booting my pc
@Saucywan do you know how to fic this:
I tried pretty much everything i could find online
restarting and redownloading vgc, checking for malwares, Perform Clean Boot; Expect VGC And Microsoft Services
none ot that works
Please make sure Vanguard is installed
Go to the Vanguard directory and make sure vgc.exe exist
Program files\Riot Vanguard
did you reinstall windows?
Solution
its a windows issue. I've fixed this issue multiple times by reinstalling my windows OS.
settings > Reset this pc > keep my files > resets pc > reinstall applications > problem solved
Already made sure of that
Does it delete my windows settings?
i just downloaded the game yesterday and first thing i get greeted by is this dumbass error message, first impressions not that good
Send a photo please
Wdym by windows settings
this worked for my bf thank you so much !!!
I tried running those commands but I ran into these errors.
Also had the same issue of being unable to start vgc, likely because of this problem here.
Anyone know what to do? Or should I just wait until this gets patched lol
You must disable Secure Boot Control from the BIOS, I recommend that you look for a video so you can see the process.
If you don't want to mess with it, then wait for a fix :/.
oh yeah
Don't turn that off
So theres no solution for this yet?
Reinstall windows. Thats the only solution I am aware of.
Open - Mouse has buttons - Device Administrator - Audio, video and game controller open - sonic Studo Virtual Mixer - Delete - Restart - Error file will become van9003
👍
thank you for that useful information
My issue got fixed by its own when i opened valorant after 2 days 🙂
Open vgtray, if the icon is glowing yellow, delete the file that the background is complaining about, reboot the pc, repeat the actions
If it doesn't work, reinstall the valorant
i got van 79
erorrrs
what should i do
