Error code VAN-81 typically indicates a problem with the Vanguard anti-cheat service. Here are some steps you can try to fix this issue:
1. Restart Valorant and Riot Client:
- Close both Valorant and the Riot Client completely.
- Reopen the Riot Client as an administrator and try launching Valorant again.
2. Reinstall Riot Vanguard:
- Go to Control Panel > Programs > Uninstall a Program.
- Find and uninstall "Riot Vanguard."
- Restart your computer.
- Open the Riot Client, which will reinstall Riot Vanguard automatically.
3. Check Vanguard Services:
- Press
Win + R
, type services.msc
, and press Enter.
- Find "VGC" in the services list.
- Right-click it, select Properties, and set the Startup type to Automatic.
- Click Start to run the service.
If these steps don’t resolve the issue, it may be due to other software conflicts or network issues. You can check for further guidance on the Riot Games support site or submit a ticket for personalized assistance.
