Tab out crash

Sometimes when I tab out, to use spotify or someone texted me on discord, my Valorant or pc crashes. I really hate it, bc of obvious reasons. Luckily I don't afk / leave any games (except the crashes!!), so I don't get punished by Valorant for it. But that doen't change the fact that I am unable to get kill or help my team, in those round where I crashed. Does anyone know how to fix this?? (If you gonna say: "just don't tab out πŸ€“πŸ‘†", then just stop it already..)

Is your valorant set to fullscreen? Maybe try windowed fullscreen and if it reoccurs then try the repair tool in the riot client If that doesn't work possibly uninstalling and reinstalling to fix corrupted files
