It sounds like your PC might have an issue with system resources or conflicts when launching VALORANT. Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot: 1. Update Drivers: Ensure your graphics card drivers and Windows updates are up to date. 2. Check System Requirements: Make sure your PC meets the minimum requirements for VALORANT. 3. Task Manager: Open Task Manager before launching VALORANT to monitor CPU and memory usage. See if any other application is using excessive resources. 4. Close Background Applications: Close any unnecessary applications running in the background to free up system resources. 5. Run as Administrator: Try running VALORANT as an administrator. 6. Vanguard: Make sure Riot Vanguard is properly installed and running. Consider reinstalling it if there are issues. 7. Disk Check: Ensure your disk isn’t full or has errors by running a disk check. 8. Reinstall VALORANT: If none of the above work, try reinstalling both Riot Vanguard and VALORANT.
