Make sure you aren't running the game as an administrator
C:\Riot Games\VALORANT\live
Right click Valorant
Properties
Compatibility
Uncheck all of the boxes
Apply
Ok
C:\Riot Games\VALORANT\live\ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64
Right click VALORANT-Win64-Shipping
Properties
Compatibility
Uncheck all of the boxes
Apply
Ok
btw im awake now if yall r free
@jidat @Saucywan
i cant uncheck the grayed out ones
The grey buttons strike again
fr 😭
So was the run as administrator checked?
nope it was like that
On both of the resources I gave you?
ya
C:\Riot Games\VALORANT\live and C:\Riot Games\VALORANT\live\ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64
When you try to play the game does it ask for administrator?
Or when you open riot client?well for this one they unchecked but still grayed out
nope
^
nope
Open cmd as admin
Enter
I'm going on break
So I won't answer for a bit
lmao ok
Please restart your computer and try the game
when u be back
We will see
👍
lol ok

Please complete remove riot client and valorant
uninstall?
Yes
um
Use the control panel version
Of add or remove apps
k
done
it removed
Ok
ya
Now reinstall
ok
this gon take a while
btw which folder
just default?
Yes
In your c: drive

its this when i try to play
You restarted your computer, correct
nope

welp
ima restart
Yup
i just restarted its still that
You uninstall riot client too, right
yep
btw
league works so i think its valorant problem not riot client problem
not that i play league 🤮
@Saucywan i need help 🙏
You’re not launching your game as an administrator?
nope
Go to
C:\Riot Games\VALORANT\live\ShooterGame\Binaries\Win64
And open VALORANT-Win64-Shipping
omg
?
You are launching your game as an administrator
OMG
this is the properties tho
how i change it
Press change settings for all users
its also unchecked there bruh
this shit buggy fr 🙏
Click cancel and go to security
Click advanced
Up top you should see owner
Are you the owner of the object
ye
Are you logged in with the administrator account
uhh
the owner acc
so yeah i think
What is your account username?
Does it say administrator
its a weird ass chinese name 🙏
but yeah im owner
Do you have multiple user accounts on your computer?
yeah my dads and my moms
It's most likely because of their accounts
what they do
Because your account doesn't have permission
oh my acc is administrator tho
my dads is like
owner or sum
So when you go ahead and run something an administrator it doesn't ask for a password?
ya
And you uninstalled valorant and reinstalled it
yeah
Press disable inheritance
its like this now
should i add my permission
please go ahead and get your windows username
uhhh
Do this by opening file explorer
how i do that ._.
Go to ^
Go to ^
mine says Windows (C:) is that the same
Then you should have a folder with your username
And all other user accounts
is this the same
ight
found it
l
k
i gave myself full control
Press apply
done
Great
Try the game
didnt work 😔
it still runs as admin tho
Through riot client
ye i did
ok
Restart your computer and try again
k
It's probably just stupid
