It sounds like your AFK issues might be related to connectivity or performance. Here are some steps you can take to help mitigate the problem: 1. Internet Connection: Ensure your internet connection is stable. Try using a wired connection instead of WiFi if possible. 2. Firewall and Network Settings: Allow VALORANT through your firewall and reset your network settings:
Run in command prompt (admin):
netsh int ip reset
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
ipconfig /flushdns
netsh winsock reset

Run in command prompt (admin):
netsh int ip reset
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
ipconfig /flushdns
netsh winsock reset

3. Background Processes: Close unnecessary applications to free up system resources and ensure better game performance. 4. System Requirements: Verify your laptop meets the game's minimum requirements: - OS: Windows 7/8/10 (64-bit) - RAM: 4GB - VRAM: 1GB 5. Vanguard Issue: Restart VALORANT and the Riot Client. If the problem persists, try reinstalling Riot Vanguard. 6. Game Updates: Make sure VALORANT and your GPU drivers are up to date. For persistent issues, consider filing a support ticket here.
