- 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 had recently taken a walk outside but before then I had chosen to reinstall it my 16th time however... I had no idea about vgc? I followed everything through and restarted Riot Games. IT WORKS!!! Thank you so much. 🤣🤩🎉 Riot Vanguard isn't initialized, hopefully a restart after vgc running fixes it.

Did you follow the second steps as well Press windows key + r Type services.msc Look for vgc Right click > properties Change startup type to auto And start the service

LWD27LukeOP4w ago
Yes I have indeed. Now I am instead trying to reinstall Valorant/Vanguard.

Try this Go to services Start the vgc service first And then try the game
LWD27Luke
LWD27LukeOP4w ago
Before I do, I'll check if reinstalling Vanguard after vgc's fix can possibly save it, installing Valorant right now. Once it's done I restart and try again. If it doesn't work then I'll try your last option. Tried it and nope. Same new problem.

Check something rq When you click on start in services, does it actually start ?

Perhaps once I start Valorant however it shuts down. Because I have started it about seven times now.

If it has something to do with Nvidia then I guess that it would make sense, I can't open their app and I tried to reinstall everything Nvidia-related recently.

I was just told that I have this card connected or something so I tried to get this version.

Alrighty, all of the Nvidia apps uninstalled. Now I have a problem where I am mentioned in the series-category that there is RTX 30 and MX300 ... I suppose that RTX 30 is it seeing how I still have RTX in the name of my card? Even though they say 30 instead of 3060? And it's not notebooks hmm?
LWD27Luke
LWD27LukeOP4w ago
Nevermind everything apart from my question about notebooks.

Apparently it got deleted with myself trying to delete a different file. Now it works, double-clicked it and now they ask me if I want the driver files to be saved in C or D. I have C connected to all of my games and D connected to everything else. Shall I still go for C with it do you think?
Metamorphosis
Metamorphosis4w ago
Yeah sure go with C
LWD27Luke
LWD27LukeOP4w ago
And I suppose that I shall get the app too?

Did you restart pc after installing?
LWD27Luke
LWD27LukeOP4w ago
I guess that I'll try now, had reinstalled Nvidia previously because of this same reason but now I'll try once more to restart I guess.
