Is Valorant installed on your HDD or SSD?

Open Device Manager and then take a screenshot of what it shows under the "Disk drives" tab

saul goodman9mo ago
well, even if you've uninstalled previously there's some files that get left behind And it tends to cause problems

Its Riot Fault because its not optimized for the HDDs and SSDs
