It looks like you're experiencing a launch issue with VALORANT. Here are a few steps you can try to resolve it: 1. Restart VALORANT and the Riot Client: Close both applications and restart them. 2. Update Your Graphics Drivers: Ensure your GPU drivers are up-to-date. 3. Run as Administrator: Right-click on the VALORANT shortcut and select "Run as administrator". 4. Reinstall Riot Vanguard: Uninstall Riot Vanguard via “Add or Remove Programs” in Windows settings. Then restart VALORANT, which should reinstall Vanguard automatically. 5. Allow VALORANT Through Your Firewall: Make sure your firewall isn’t blocking VALORANT or the Riot Client. 6. Check for Windows Updates: Ensure your operating system is fully updated. If none of these steps work, consider contacting Riot Support for further assistance.

Yuu•4w ago

ok my roommate had the same issues yesterday and the issue i found was vgc was not running yes can you share your screen? on pc search services

Sapphire Phoenix•4w ago

try this: press win + r > type services.msc > click any service and then press v > you should see a service called "vgc" (if you don't see it in the first go, keep pressing v until you find it. if its not there at all, then there is an installation issue and will require a reinstall) > once you find "vgc", right click it > select properties > set startup type automatic. Also start the service manually for the time being.

Noam•4w ago
