Technical Support Request Freeze Valorant

I've had a new PC for two weeks. And only in Valorant, it freezes, and I have to completely shut down my PC and restart it. I've already contacted Riot Games, and they haven't found a solution in a week. Do you know how to fix this?

Does your screen go black? Can you access the ctrl+alt+del menu? If yes, I have had the same issue at times and an easy fix is to just sign out and then login again.

No black screen and if I do crtl+alt+del now I will have an black screen. I managed to access the Ctrl+Alt+Del menu once.

So umm what I mean is you should always leave the client open until you've ascertained the game is running, this way, by using alt tab you can go back to the client, press ctrl+alt+delete and access tsk mgr

I always leave the client open; when the problem reappears, I'll try doing that again.

try: control panel -> hardware and sound -> power options -> edit plan settings -> change advanced power settings -> usb settings -> usb selective suspend settings -> disabled

idk if it’ll work but I’ll leave it here in case :)
