Valorant not opening

So i've had this problem for a few months now but just decided to reach out today. So this problem is basically what the title is. I've been playing valorant on my brothers pc for a long time and have had no problems opening it but only did when i got my own computer. I have tried multiple tutorials from youtube to try to solve it but nothing really works. Would be glad if you guys help!

Same issue here I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled 5 times and still nothing I click open, it acts as if it’s going to open, then it sends me back to riot launcher and nothing happened

Hm Open task manager Then details Close evry valorant,riot client and vanguard related apps/services Open control panel Uninstall programs Uninstall riot vanguard Open cmd as admin and type these commands:- 1) sc delete vgc 2)sc delete vgk Navigate to ur C drive then program files and find vanguard folder and delete it. Then open riot client and click update Restart ur pc after the update.
