Frequent freezing and late loading in VALORANT can be frustrating and disruptive. Here are some potential fixes: 1. Update your Graphics Drivers: Ensure you have the latest drivers for your GPU. Visit the manufacturer's website (NVIDIA, AMD, etc.) for updates. 2. Check System Requirements: Ensure your PC meets VALORANT's minimum requirements. 3. Reduce In-Game Settings: Lower your graphics settings to reduce strain on your PC. 4. Close Background Applications: Shut down unnecessary programs running in the background. 5. Check your Internet Connection: A stable connection is crucial. Consider using a wired connection instead of Wi-Fi. 6. Whitelist VALORANT in Firewall: Sometimes, firewall settings can hinder performance. Here's a guide: Your Firewall VS VALORANT. 7. Run as Administrator: Run both VALORANT and the Riot Client with administrator rights. 8. Repair or Reinstall: Use VALORANT's repair tool or consider a fresh reinstall. If these steps don't help or if issues persist, contacting Riot Support is advisable: Riot Games Support.

This is an issue with files loading off of your disk. You might have a HDD. If you do, you should defragment it or get an SSD and place Valorant on it. Use windows key + r than type "dfrgui" to check what type of drive you have. Learn how to defragment: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/defragment-your-windows-10-pc-048aefac-7f1f-4632-d48a-9700c4ec702a
Solid State Drives (SSD) and Hard Disk Drives (HDD) are data storage devices. SSDs are usually much smaller, thinner, and offer more storage volume, speed, and efficiency compared to HDDs.
