hmmm the logs look really weird, let's wait for the hotfix that's being rolled out now and see if that fixes it for you if it still doesn't work we can try something else

it's being deployed globally, might take a few hours for the update to reach you but if riot client shows an update for valorant that should be it
mr daren
mr darenā€¢13h ago
it did show an update but whenever i pressed it it js sent the same message again this

mr daren
mr darenā€¢13h ago
wait wait before i do that im gonna try the vgc thingy and press start and see if it works give me 1 sec ima restart my pc
junimo
junimoā€¢13h ago
it'd mess up the vanguard logs and make things harder to diagnose it's better to do a clean run and get the logs so we can figure out exactly what went wrong
mr daren
mr darenā€¢13h ago
alr it didnt open anything
junimo
junimoā€¢13h ago
