This error typically indicates a problem with file permissions or disk space on your system. Here are a few steps you can try to resolve the issue:
1. Run as Administrator: Right-click on the Riot Client and VALORANT shortcuts and select "Run as administrator."
2. Check Disk Space: Ensure you have enough disk space on your drive. If your disk is full, try freeing up some space.
3. Check Folder Permissions:
- Navigate to
C:\Users\[Your Username]\AppData\Local\Temp.
- Right-click on the Temp folder, select "Properties," and then go to the "Security" tab.
- Ensure your user account has "Full Control" permissions. If not, modify the permissions accordingly.
4. Clean Temp Folder: Sometimes, clearing the temporary files can help:
- Press Win + R, type %TEMP%, and hit Enter.
- Select all files in the Temp folder and delete them.
5. Reinstall Vanguard:
- Uninstall Riot Vanguard from your system.
- Restart your computer.
- Launch VALORANT again to reinstall Vanguard automatically.
6. Disable Antivirus/Firewall: Temporarily disable any third-party antivirus or firewall software to see if it's blocking Vanguard from creating the temporary folder.
