Not able to uninstall valorant
Trying to uninstall valorant and riot client off my computer, but both won't uninstall. For riot client, it just says "need to delete riot client games first" but when trying to delete valorant it continously says "riot client is already running, you need to close it before uninstalling" even though its closed everywhere including task manager.
Its eating up my disc space so would appreciate help lmao

well uninstall valorant first, but i remember it was weird for me too. maybe have to delet the files in C drive/Riot Games/Valorant?
😠now it says this
i js want the disc space free
i think its because i deleted that so yeah
hm yeah i forgot it was kind of weird for me too. i'd try google. theres a lot of reddit threads on it
You can try disabling riot client as a startup app, restarting your PC and uninstalling Val that way
its weird because its not loading now?
i think i mightve tampered with the files bc i perma deleted the one on my drive
@ASVlover If you've already deleted some files your best bet is to continue manually. Check these locations:
C:\Riot Games
C:\ProgramData\Riot Games
C:\Program Files\Riot Vanguard
%localappdata%\Riot Games
%localappdata%\VALORANT
%appdata%\riot-client-uxyup, i did the bottom 3 as well as the top one, but this shows up when i try to delete riot vanguard
it asks for admin perms to delete and after that it says its already open somewhere else
Exit Vanguard in your tray
Then try to Uninstall it from the tray or delete the folder
If that doesn’t work disable it as a startup app & disable the vgc and vgk services
