You’re thinking of the wrong thing It means the objects it owns Instead of doing the exe do the entire folder
DeMarcus Cousins IV
the entire W64 folder?
Saucywan

Just do the entire riot games folder

Saucywan9mo ago
Top one

Move the Riot Games folder from the local disk C to the program files folder instead And then launch the game
DeMarcus Cousins IV
doesn't work

How did you launch the game after moving the folder? Throught Riot Client, or through the Valorant shortcut on the desktop? You're probably gonna have to locate the new installation path on Riot Client since you moved it You can either google how to do so, or call me on discord and I'll walk you through it

not really, if it doesn't recognize any instillation for the game it will ask you to install it again then you just redirect to its current folder and it will check the integrity of the game files and (maybe) ask for a system restart.

mythea9mo ago
correct if it found valorant folder at the pointing path, it will check for checksums/hashes
