Installing Vanguard
Apparently I just needed to have my computer shut down for the night and the next day everything would start to work again.
My question: How do I install Riot Vanguard?

Open the Riot Client & click "update/play"
It should automatically install Vanguard if you don't have it
I have now done so but the computer doesn't mention anything about having it, possibly once I restart it will.
But it got installed to the wrong disk previously, how do I make sure that it gets installed to the right one?
It got installed on the wrong disk? I didn't know that was possible
It seems that I just needed to update a third time to have it showing and BOOM! It's on disk D, not C.
Wonderful! Do you need help with anything else?
Disk D is the wrong disk...
It does load the game correctly, right?
Disk D got shut down yesterday, disabling everything on my computer except games entirely.
From riot client
Click on the profile icon top right
Click settings
Click valorant
And you can see what disk it is downloading on
oh shii
thanks pooks
No matter, I might have finally found the issue now. ChatGPT told me about checking the default location of apps being moved to and apparently I had things on Disk D. I am so used to the app itself asking me where I want it installed so I forget about that setting entirely.
I'll have this ticket open till I know that things here are working.
Take as long as you need! 🍪
Meta will be here to help while I'm in a match
Sorry to bother, last thing I'll mention. None of the options worked, neither Meta's or ChatGPT's two first. Now for ChatGPT's third and last. Just move all of the files from Folder D to C, Ctrl + X - Ctrl + V. 🤣
Let's see how this goes.
NOPE! They act as if Riot Vanguard is uninstalled because of it.
Dayum Riot Vanguard is trying to kill me. 🤣🤣🤣
Whyever the hell Riot Client is in disk C no problem is beyond me.
Where is it located under which file
I have valorant on a D disk & it shows vanguard on the C disk lmfao
Ig that's normal
As I have Valorant on C, Riot Vanguard is D:\Program Files\Riot Vanguard
maybe it could be normal?
Perhaps indeed.
