If you're experiencing issues with the VALORANT bootstrapper and have already allowed the game through your firewall, try the following additional steps:
1. Restart VALORANT and the Riot Client: This often resolves many bootstrapper-related issues.
2. Run as Administrator: Right-click on the VALORANT shortcut and select "Run as administrator."
3. Update Windows and GPU Drivers: Ensure your operating system and graphics drivers are fully up-to-date.
4. Clear DNS Cache: Open Command Prompt as administrator and run
ipconfig /flushdns.
5. Reinstall Riot Vanguard: Uninstall Riot Vanguard from the system's Control Panel, then restart your PC and launch VALORANT to reinstall it.
6. Check for Background Software: Certain programs can conflict with VALORANT. Try disabling unnecessary software, particularly those related to security or network monitoring.
7. Repair VALORANT: Open the Riot Client, click on the profile icon, go to Settings, and select ‘Repair VALORANT’.
8. Clean Boot: Perform a clean boot to start Windows with a minimal set of drivers and startup programs.
