If you're encountering a black loading screen in VALORANT even after reinstallation, here are a few steps you can try:
1. Update Graphics Drivers:
- Ensure your graphics drivers are up-to-date. You can download the latest drivers from the NVIDIA or AMD website, depending on your graphics card.
2. Run as Administrator:
- Right-click on the VALORANT shortcut and select "Run as administrator."
3. Compatibility Mode:
- Right-click the VALORANT shortcut, go to Properties > Compatibility, and try running the game in compatibility mode for Windows 8.
4. Disable Fullscreen Optimizations:
- In the same Compatibility tab, check "Disable fullscreen optimizations."
5. Check DEP Settings:
- Go to Control Panel > System > Advanced System Settings > Performance Settings > Data Execution Prevention tab. Ensure "Turn on DEP for essential Windows programs and services only" is selected.
6. Close Background Applications:
- Close unnecessary background applications that might interfere with the game.
7. Repair VALORANT:
- Open the Riot Client, go to the settings, and use the repair tool to fix any corrupted files.
If none of these steps work, consider submitting a support ticket to Riot Games for more detailed assistance.
