28. Test Valorant and League on a Virtual Machine
Set up a virtual machine (VM) using software like VMware or VirtualBox to test if the problem is system-specific:
Install Windows on the VM.
Install Riot Client and Vanguard.
If it works on the VM, it suggests an issue specific to your current OS installation.
29. Perform a Complete Clean OS Installation
If all else fails, consider a clean installation of Windows (not keeping any files):
Back up important data to an external drive.
Use a bootable USB to reinstall Windows completely.
Reinstall only Riot Client and Vanguard after the clean installation.

22. Run Riot Client as Administrator with Compatibility Mode
Right-click on the Riot Client shortcut and select Properties.
Under the Compatibility tab:
Check Run this program as an administrator.
Enable Compatibility Mode and select Windows 8.
Apply changes and try launching the client.
23. Disable Overclocking and System Tuning
If you're using any overclocking tools (e.g., MSI Afterburner) or system tuning software, revert to default settings:
Disable all overclocks, including GPU, CPU, and RAM.
Ensure BIOS settings like XMP profiles are disabled temporarily.
24. Test with a Hotspot or Alternate Network
Connect your PC to a mobile hotspot or another network to rule out ISP-related issues.
Attempt the Riot Client update or installation using this connection.
25. Recheck GPU Drivers Using DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller)
Fully uninstall GPU drivers using Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) in Safe Mode.
Reinstall the latest drivers from your GPU manufacturer's website (NVIDIA, AMD, or Intel).
26. Use a Different User Account
If you're using a Microsoft account, switch to a local administrator account:
Go to Settings > Accounts > Your Info.
Create a new local account, give it administrative privileges, and log in with it.
Reinstall Riot Client and Vanguard from this account.
27. Check Disk Health and Performance
Run the following in Command Prompt as Administrator to check and repair disk errors:
chkdsk /f /r
This will require a reboot to complete. Ensure your storage drive is not causing issues.

16. Verify Vanguard Services Status
Open Command Prompt as Administrator and check the status of Vanguard services:
sc query vgc
sc query vgk
If the services are not running, restart them manually:
net start vgc
net start vgk
If they fail to start, reinstall Vanguard as outlined in the previous steps.
17. Temporarily Disable IPv6
Disabling IPv6 can help avoid potential network conflicts:
Go to Control Panel > Network and Sharing Center > Change Adapter Settings.
Right-click on your active network, select Properties, and uncheck Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6).
Click OK and restart your PC.
18. Advanced Network Configuration: Use Google DNS
Switch to Google Public DNS to resolve possible DNS-related issues:
Go to Control Panel > Network and Sharing Center > Change Adapter Settings.
Right-click your connection, select Properties, and double-click IPv4.
Use these DNS settings:
Preferred DNS server: 8.8.8.8
Alternate DNS server: 8.8.4.4
Restart your PC after saving the settings.
19. Use Safe Mode with Networking
Boot into Safe Mode with Networking and try running Riot Client or updating Valorant:
Restart your PC and press F8 or hold Shift while selecting Restart from the power menu.
Select Safe Mode with Networking.
Open Riot Client and attempt the update.
20. Check System Logs for Errors
Open Event Viewer (Win + S > search for "Event Viewer") and check the following logs:
Windows Logs > System: Look for errors related to Riot or Vanguard services.
Application Logs: Check for Riot Client-specific errors.
Share specific error codes or details for further troubleshooting.
21. Verify Riot's Hosts File Configuration
Open the hosts file located at C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts with Administrator privileges.
Ensure no Riot-related entries are blocking connections. If you see any, remove

8. Force Clean Boot
Perform a clean boot to avoid third-party software interference:
Open Run (Win + R) and type msconfig.
Under the Services tab, check "Hide all Microsoft services" and disable all remaining services.
Under the Startup tab in Task Manager, disable all startup programs.
Restart your PC and retry the installation/update.
9. Modify Windows Security Settings
Ensure Virtualization-Based Security (VBS) is completely turned off:
Open Windows Security > Device Security > Core Isolation.
Disable Memory Integrity (if available).
Also, verify that Secure Boot is correctly enabled in your BIOS.
10. Use a Local Administrator Account
Sometimes, permissions issues arise with your user account. Create a new local admin account:
Go to Settings > Accounts > Family & other users.
Add a new user account and assign administrative privileges.
Log in with the new account and test the update process.
11. Check for File System Errors
Open Command Prompt as Administrator and run the following:
sfc /scannow
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
These commands will repair corrupted system files.
12. Recheck BIOS Settings
Enter your BIOS (usually Del or F2 during startup).
Ensure the following:
Secure Boot is enabled.
TPM (Trusted Platform Module) is active.
13. Try a Different Riot Account
Occasionally, account-specific issues might cause problems. Log in with a different Riot account and test.
14. Download via VPN
Connect to a VPN and attempt the update from a different region. This may bypass network throttling or geo-related issues.
15. Advanced Windows Reinstallation: Reset Without Reinstall
Use the Reset this PC option in Windows to reset your system while keeping personal files:
Go to Settings > Update & Security > Recovery > Reset this PC.
Choose Keep my files and let Windows reset.

1. Reinstall Vanguard Completely
Fully uninstall Riot Vanguard using the control panel.
Navigate to C:\Program Files\Riot Vanguard and delete the folder if it still exists.
Restart your PC after uninstalling.
Download and reinstall Vanguard using the Riot Client.
2. Check Background Applications
Some background applications might interfere with Riot Vanguard or the Riot Client. Specifically:
RivaTuner Statistics Server
MSI Afterburner
Any third-party overlay applications (e.g., Discord overlay, Steam overlay).
Disable or uninstall these programs temporarily to test.
3. Ensure Drivers Are Up to Date
Update all system drivers, particularly:
Graphics Card (NVIDIA/AMD).
Network Adapter Drivers.
Use official tools like NVIDIA GeForce Experience, AMD Software, or Intel Driver Support Assistant.
4. Disable Windows Defender and Antivirus Temporarily
Since you're using Windows Defender:
Temporarily disable Real-time protection and Firewall.
Add Riot Client, Valorant, and Vanguard folders as Exclusions again for extra precaution.
After testing, re-enable these settings.
5. Recreate System Dependencies
Sometimes system-level dependencies like .NET Framework or Visual C++ Redistributable might cause issues:
Download and install the latest Visual C++ Redistributable packages (both x86 and x64) from the Microsoft website.
Reinstall the .NET Framework from the official site.
6. Force Reset Network Settings
Open Command Prompt as Administrator and run the following commands:
netsh int ip reset
netsh winsock reset
ipconfig /flushdns
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
Restart your PC and test again.
7. Manually Reinstall Riot Services
Delete the following folders manually:
C:\Riot Games
C:\ProgramData\Riot Games
C:\Users<YourUser>\AppData\Local\Riot Games
C:\Users<YourUser>\AppData\Roaming\Riot Games
Reinstall Riot Client from scratch.
