Spent 2 weeks tryna get Valorant to work

Gosh, what must I do just so I can get back to being 0.6 KD?! Reinstalled vanguard multiple times, updated the game, winsock reset, flushdns & /renew, forced game file check, logged out everywhere, different accounts, port forwarding, different Ethernet cables, no antivirus I'm at a loss rn. I can't think of anything else, I can get past the loading screen, but as soon as I hit START, "Could not start match", followed by val 5 (look at the pictures provided) Error codes: VAL 51, VAL 5

Open task manager Then details Close every valorant,riot client and vanguard related apps/services
Open control panel
- Uninstall programs - Uninstall riot vanguard Open cmd as admin and type these commands:- 1:
sc delete vgc
sc delete vgc
2:
sc delete vgk
sc delete vgk
Navigate to your C drive then -> program files and find vanguard folder and delete it. Then open riot client and click update Restart your pc after the update.

Oh this one is still on lol Disable ipv6, set dns to 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4 Uninstall riva tuner statistics if u have it. Give exceptions to valorant,valorant win64 shipping,riot client and vgc in ur firewall. Reinstall the whole game (delete vanguard first then valorant then riot client) (also use control panel to do so).

DNS changed, uninstalled rivatuner, firewall done still same just, I didn't reinstall the game I have a limit on how much internet I could use atp I don't think it's worth reinstalling so I guess I'll just quit and move on
