Error Code VAL 62
I have also gotten the VAL 62 error along with what seems to be an increasing amount of people in the last few days for some reason, and nothing I do seems to fix it. I have restarted my PC/router, reinstalled vanguard/valorant/riot client, changed the vgc thingy in services to automatic, done a several other things on youtube videos, nothing I seem to be doing is working
The last time I had a major issue with some time of valorant issue I had to hard reset my PC and I'm really hoping I don't have to do that again

VAL 62 is typically related to issues with the Riot Client. Since you've already tried numerous troubleshooting steps, here are a few additional suggestions:
1. Clear the Riot Client Cache:
- Go to
C:\Users\<Your Username>\AppData\Local\Riot Games\Riot Client\Data.
- Delete all the files in this folder, then restart the Riot Client.
2. Check System Time and Date:
- Ensure your system's time and date are correct. An incorrect system clock can cause connection issues.
3. Run the Client as Administrator:
- Right-click on the Riot Client and select "Run as administrator".
4. VPN or Proxy:
- If you’re using a VPN or Proxy, try disabling it as it can sometimes cause connection issues.
5. Windows Update:
- Make sure your Windows is fully updated. Sometimes missing updates can cause compatibility issues.
If these steps don’t resolve the issue, I recommend submitting a ticket to Riot Support, detailing the steps you've already taken. A support agent may be able to offer more targeted assistance.

broo me too
what the fuck is happening because ive been dealing with this all day
reinstalled
did the vgc shit
even deleted temp files , a few corrupt files and cleared my cache and im still being met wit the same
same dude wtf
im getting so many penalties from this shit
ya.. im having this issue today too
starting to think i am not the problem
i did the exact same, did the services vgc thing, wiped every valorant file known to man except for the one spyware in the deep depths of who knows where (kidding), cleared cache, reset proxy, reinstalled, restarted, i have tried literally everything
im assuming its just an error on valorants side with the insane amount of people reporting about not being able to play so ig all we can do is wait for them to fix it
makes me feel better that im not the only one having this issue, i thought i jacked something on my pc up for sure
