So I contacted Riot Games again and they suggested the following solution: I could uninstall "VALORANT", but during while trying to uninstall "Riot Vanguard" the tool didn't find the "uninstall.exe". A prompt will appear saying “This app and its related info will be uninstalled”.Īllow the application to make changes to your devices, and confirm that you want Riot Vanguard uninstalled, and the process is complete. Scroll down to “Riot Vanguard” and "VALORANT", click on them, and Uninstall them 1 by 1. Press the Windows Key or press the Windows at the bottom of the screen, and type “Add or remove programs”, and press Enter. They suggested to uninstall both, "VALORANT" and "Riot Vanguard" via the following steps: I had the same issue on my Windows 10 and contacted Riot Games about it. This is automatic so you mus only open the client to begin.ġ0.) Hopefully that should do it, and with only one restart PM me or reply with questions or where I sourced this info Otherwise,Ģ.) Type CMD into the bar (or just after you hit the key)ģ.) Once you see the Console pop up (a black box icon with a white top, google search for more info) right click and select "run as administrator"Ĥ.) Type the following two commands exactly, in succession hitting enter after the first, typing the second, and then hitting enter once again to execute each individually (for those not familiar with the console)ĥ.) Restart your PC with the console openĦ.) After you have booted back up, navigate (in file explorer) to program files (not x86) in your local disk c ( C:\PROGRAM FILES\)ħ.) Right click the WHOLE FILE "Riot Vanguard"Ĩ.) Click delete (with the shield next to it) and accept all prompts it generates (are you sure, do you want to etc.)ĩ.) Open the valorant client, and allow it to install Vanguard (the process you just deleted) fresh. If CSMikestar's fix does not work for you, follow the videos I commented on someone elses question.
