It sounds like you've covered a lot of troubleshooting steps already, which is great. Since the issue persists, let's try a more in-depth fix:
1. Clear Cache & Temp Files: Delete the contents of your "Temp" folder (you can access it by typing
%temp% in the Windows search bar).
2. Reset Network Settings: Run the following commands again in an admin Command Prompt:
3. Reinstall Vanguard Manually:
- Uninstall Vanguard through the Control Panel.
- Navigate to C:\Program Files\Riot Vanguard and delete the folder.
- Restart your PC.
- Start VALORANT, and it should prompt you to reinstall Vanguard.
4. Check for Background Applications: Close any unnecessary applications running in the background that might conflict with VALORANT, especially overlays and third-party security software.
If none of these steps resolve the issue, you might want to directly contact Riot Support for further assistance.
