- Open the Task Manager > Details tab
- End the task on all VALORANT, Riot Client and VANGUARD-related apps/services
- Open the Control Panel > Uninstall a Program
- Uninstall Riot VANGUARD
- Open CMD as Admin and type these commands:
- sc delete vgc
- sc delete vgk
- Navigate to your C: Drive, then Program Files
- Find the VANGUARD folder and delete it
- Open the Riot Client and click update
- Restart your computer after the update
After you’re done with that:
- Press Windows key + R
- Type services.msc
- Look for vgc
- Right-click on vgc > Properties
- Change the startup type to automatic
- Start the services (if not started already)
We will be waiting for your response, thank you.
i did this
but again at last step when i try to start vgc it says this

and now i open valorant and it say's the same issue
van error -79
pls man help asap
Press win+r
Type msinfo32
Show ss

@Jidat

Open cmd as admin
Type these commands
bcdedit.exe /set testsigning off
bcdedit.exe /set nointegritychecks off
Show result for both

Try to start the vgc service again
Also set its startup type to automatic
still same issue

still it says this
when i launch valorant it say's starting but then the error comes on valorant of -79 and then i quit

Did u restart ur pc after typing the commands
no
shall i retype this command and restart or just restart?
Just restart
doesn't work
still this issue
@Jidat bro
did you get van -81 before this one?
van -79 should be the vanguard driver if i remeber correctly
if you've set up your windows for selective startup/disabled some startup settings
this one

do you know how to access your regedit on windows, once you find and enable it in there, should be good unless it's missing
Yeah wayy before time but I reseted the pc and it was working fine but I encounter this 😭
-81 should be caused by this and probably got fixed since it rebooted on startup which just leaves the driver

where do I access this
@Oz
can you screenshare since it's alot of file entries
yeah wheere?
dms
Have you resolved the issue? If not can you send me your vanguard logs please @Pikachu21
sure
where do i find it?
this?
thier are multiple logs so i sended the first 2

also @Oz told me it might be the issue of vgk
@junimo you found something?
:(
@junimo is secureboot required for vgc and vgk services?
the logs look very weird, can you generate some clean logs for me by rebooting and then running valorant?
alright
you thier?
yeah
i can't start riot cleint idk why
nvm it was in tray
@junimo
u saw it @junimo ???
@junimo is thier any way i can play valorant without vgc? because it has been virus to me. always fucking causing issue's
Bruv you need to stop spam pinging them☠️
They’ll reply when they can
And no, you can’t play without vgc
@Pikachu21 Also quick question for you, are you using 1 of those un official windows ?
your vanguard driver isn't loaded properly
do
sc query vgk
in cmd.exe and see what it says
also is there a new vgk log for you?
yeah
but that's not the issue
i played before
but i ran an optimizer and it ruined everything
this happened in offical windows too.
GUYS
