I'm sorry to hear you're having issues with VALORANT crashing. Here are some steps you can try to resolve the issue:
1. Restart your PC - Sometimes a fresh restart can solve a lot of issues.
2. Update Drivers - Make sure your GPU drivers and Windows are up to date.
3. Run as Administrator - Right-click on VALORANT and select "Run as Administrator".
4. Check Firewall/Antivirus - Ensure that VALORANT is allowed through your firewall and that your antivirus isn’t blocking it.
5. Reinstall VALORANT - Uninstall the game and Riot Vanguard, then download and reinstall both.
6. Clear Temp Files - Press Win + R, type %temp%, and clear the files in the folder to free up space.
7. Disable Overlays - Disable any third-party overlays, such as Discord, NVIDIA GeForce Experience, etc.
8. Repair Game Files - Open the Riot Client, go to VALORANT, click on settings, and select "Repair".
If the issue persists, creating a ticket on the Riot Games Support Site may be necessary for further assistance.
