Game wont go to menu, crashes during loading
Downloaded the new update, for some reason the game crashes before it can get to the menu screen. Tried all the things the bot told me to do, nothing changed. I have tried reinstalling valorant and vanguard as well, but with no luck. I have also heard other people having a similar problem, but no fix has been found(as far as i can tell) Can i get some help?

Since you've already tried common fixes like reinstalling VALORANT and Vanguard with no success, and the issue persists after updating, this might be a widespread problem related to the recent patch. Here are some additional steps you can try:
1. Update Graphics Drivers: Ensure your GPU drivers are up-to-date.
2. Check for Windows Updates: Install any pending Windows updates.
3. Run as Administrator: Right-click the VALORANT shortcut and select "Run as administrator."
4. Disable Overlays: Disable any game overlays like Discord, GeForce Experience, or other third-party apps.
5. Temporary File Cleanup: Delete temporary files by running
Disk Cleanup on your main drive.
6. Close Background Applications: Ensure no unnecessary applications are running in the background.
If none of these steps work, it could be a bug with the latest update. In that case, please submit a ticket to Riot Games with detailed information about your crash here: Riot Games Support.
