A black screen on launch can be frustrating! Here are some steps to troubleshoot the issue:
1. Update GPU Drivers: Ensure your graphics drivers are up-to-date. You can download the latest drivers from the Nvidia or AMD website.
2. Run as Administrator: Right-click on the VALORANT shortcut and select 'Run as Administrator'.
3. Compatibility Mode: Right-click on the VALORANT shortcut, go to 'Properties' -> 'Compatibility' tab, and try running it in compatibility mode for Windows 7 or 8.
4. Disable Fullscreen Optimization: In the same 'Compatibility' tab, check the box 'Disable fullscreen optimizations'.
5. Background Programs: Close any unnecessary background programs, especially game-related services like overlays.
6. Reinstall VALORANT and Vanguard: Sometimes, a fresh install helps fix persistent issues.
If none of these steps resolve the problem, you may want to check for any specific errors or warnings in the Event Viewer and submit a ticket to Riot Support for further assistance.
