This error usually occurs when a required dependency for VALORANT cannot be installed. Here are some steps to resolve it:
1. Restart Your PC: Try restarting your computer to ensure no background processes are interfering.
2. Run as Administrator: Right-click the Riot Client shortcut and select "Run as administrator" to give it the necessary permissions.
3. Disable Antivirus/Firewall Temporarily: Sometimes, antivirus or firewall software can block necessary installations. Temporarily disable them, but remember to enable them after the update.
4. Update Windows: Ensure your operating system is up to date. Go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update and check for updates.
5. Clear Temp Files:
- Press Win + R, type
%temp%, and hit Enter.
- Delete all files in the temp folder.
6. Reinstall Riot Vanguard:
- Open Control Panel > Uninstall a Program.
- Locate Riot Vanguard and uninstall it.
- Restart your computer and launch VALORANT; it will reinstall Vanguard automatically.
If none of these steps work, you may need to reach out to Riot's player support team for further assistance.
