Is this error code Val 5 thing a bug? My partner can log into my account on their PC just fine, but when I try to play it on mine it shows this every time I queue. 😃

Open task manager
Then go to details
Close every valorant,riot client and vanguard related app
Then open control panel
Uninstall programs
And uninstall vanguard
Including Valorant?
(Make sure u only uninstall vanguard)
??
Nvm
What including valorant
I misread 😁
I said EVERYTHING
Alright
After u do that
Open riot client
And there should be a update option
Update it and it will tell u to restart
Restart ur pc and the issue should be fixed hopefully
If this issue persists are there other likely solutions?
It shouldn't persist rly
We can try other things if this doesn't work
Alright but in case it does, can I get another thing to try beforehand?
Hello again
omg hi
To update you, there was no bug found
fuckkkk
Alright, I'll see what I can do
:val_CatBigStare:
i'm just a teensy bit annoyed cause i've only been playing for a week and then this happened lmfao
Just do what i asked u to
I think my account is cooked
have you made a support ticket to riot
Yeah
I submitted one yesterday before I sent messages her tbh
Yeah so now it’s just saying Vanguard isn’t initialized
And then it goes to VAL 5
Open cmd as admin
And type these commands
sc query vgk
sc query vgc
And show the result
I’ll try this when I have access to the PC next week
@vinosaur it means u have gotten banned i just got it
(got banned)
for some reason
idk why
Can you show me the error you have?
It’s literally just
not you
Lost connectivity to the client.
@Milo Tastic
^
i have the val 5 error u have lost connection to riot please contact support or restart riot games
or smth like that
How do you know your banned?
That’s what I gave
Have
and all my friends and some people in the server say its ban
its hwid ban
It's not
If it was you would have been notified
In riot client
You can test if your account is banned by just logging into the website
i really dont think u know
whats right about what your saying or not
cause that is a acc ban and what we got is a hwid ban
not a acc
ban
a hwid ban
…
It does not mean a hardware ID ban
Please stop saying it does
Val 5 is not a hwid ban
ok what is it
It is an error related to vanguard
Riot has never informed me that has anything to do with a hardware ID ban
how do i fix then
Reinstalling vanguard properly fixes it for most people
I’m not banned
how
I’m confused af lmfao
I am too :D
Does your partner live with you and use the same router?
Apparently using a TP-link has fixed it for some people so if it’s working on a different computer in the same network then maybe we can explore the network settings and look around a bit
My partner doesn’t live with me. No
Would this work?
You can try but I won’t say it will work
