This shortcut is being ran as an admin
Press, the Windows key and enter valorant
okey
Make sure there’s no pop-up asking you yes or no
no yes or no question, this error pops up

Then right click and press open file location
Then send me a photo
okej
Press open file location
What to do next?
Nothing
One sec
okej
@jidat do you have the permissions command saved?
Solution
Open cmd (Command Propmt) as admin and enter:
icacls "C:\Riot Games\VALORANT" /grant Users:F /t /cokej
as an administrator?
what to do next?
Restart pc and launch the game
okej
Still the same
Hm
hmm
we still don't know what the problem is
If i had to guess,its running as admin some fckng how
yes
U said u tried running it as admin
How did u try that?
I mean I didn't try to run as administrator when I installed Valorant it was right away
So when u try to launch the game, does it give u a pop-up or anything saying like "do u want this app to make changes to your device"?
Or any pop up when u r trying to open the game
It didn't show me anything like that
Can u go here again
Right click on valorant there
Then properties
Show ss
yes
what to do next?
@Saucywan :val_HelloBro:
