Error Code VAL 5 means your account was logged into elsewhere. You've already tried logging out from everywhere and relogging in, as well as restarting your PC, which are the standard steps. Here are a few additional suggestions:
1. Change Your Password: This will ensure that your account is secure and force logout of any potential unauthorized sessions.
2. Check Account Security: Make sure no one else has access to your account. Enable two-factor authentication for extra security.
3. Riot Support: If the issue persists despite these steps, it may be worthwhile to submit a ticket to Riot's support team for further assistance.
