Frozen screen but everything is still running.
I played a deathmatch game, a whole ranked game then suddenly when alt-tabbing on another ranked game it just froze. I ran off of administrator as well. This only started happening 2 days ago.

It sounds like you might be experiencing an issue with in-game overlays or other software conflicts. Here's a quick troubleshooting guide that might help:
1. Disable Overlays: Disable any game overlays (Discord, Nvidia GeForce Experience, etc.) as they can sometimes conflict with the game.
2. Update Drivers: Ensure your GPU and other system drivers are up to date.
3. Check for Background Programs: Close unnecessary background applications that might be causing conflicts.
4. Task Manager: If the game freezes, press
Ctrl+Shift+Esc
to open Task Manager and end the VALORANT process.
5. Reinstall Game and Vanguard: If the issue persists, try reinstalling VALORANT and Riot Vanguard.
6. System Requirements: Ensure that your system meets the recommended requirements for VALORANT.
