Please try reinstalling vanguard
restarting your pc usually fix this, but if it doesn't, then yeah, reinstall vanguard
I already reinstalled vanguard and restarted my pc many times, it still doesnt work
I already tried that and it didn't work
Open cmd as admin
Enter: sc query vgc
And: sc query vgk
what do i do after
Send me the output
huh
I saw one of the solutions is signing out everywhere then signing back in.
After each command, you’ll get an output that you can either send a photo or just copy and paste
Reinstalling Vanguard did the trick for me but that didn't seem to work for you.
you right
when i went to settings on the website it said that settings was closed and wouldnt let me in
Oh.
This game is a pain in the ass to play lmao.
so real
i havent played in 9 months
because of this problem
Open task manager and click startup
I did that
what now
Find vanguard
Is it enabled
it says vanguard tray notification and its enabled
do i turn it to disabled
No
you right
How did you reinstall Vanguard before?
by updating valorant from riot client
How did you remove it from your computer?
uh
from my settings im pretty sure
then i checked in my files to see if the vanguard file was still there
What antivirus do you have?
uh
i dont think i have one
Download autoruns
And untick anything that is red or yellow
okok
where do i download it from
Autoruns for Windows - Sysinternals
See what programs are configured to startup automatically when your system boots and you login.
you right
i downloaded it
what now
^
how do i untick something
There should be a box to the left
ohhhh
If you click it, the checkmark will disappear
Or reappeared, depending if it was there
do i untick everything thats red and yellow in the app
Yup
I did it
what now
Restart your PC
okok
do i do anything else
Nope
So do I start up valorant now
Yup
do i run it as admin
I just wanna make sure im doing everything right
No
Don’t
okok
how do i fix this
Please make your own post!

when i tried joining a game it still has the error
Do you play on Asia Pacific, or Korea servers?
no
I play NA
Are you running your game as an administrator?
no
Please try that
Okay
I got the error again
Vanguard is crashing

what does that mean
Please press win + r. Then, enter msinfo32. Then, send a photo of the app that opens
