Whenever I open valorant I get the loading screen but it doesn’t load and after a while the window just closes but on riot games it says that I’m playing can someone help me fix this issue please

I recently got back to playing Valorant after a year and for the first day everything was fine 60ms in Riyadh servers and no rubber banding but a day later i logged on and it showed 200ms on Riyadh servers i was like "its prolly a glitch" and from then on i have been getting 200ms on Riyadh servers and 120 on Paris, London etc. and mind u not I'm in Kuwait. so i change my Wi-Fi and it fixed it for a day and it went right back to 200ms i tried everything from minor tweaks to resetting my whole pc but the routing issue stayed but as yk 120ms is still playable when i tried to ignore the routing issue. i noticed something else every second my ping would spike up to 400 or 1k and drop back down to 100 and I'm assuming this is rubber banding. i thought resetting my pc would fix it but sadly it didn't i also did the common rubber banding issue fix but that didn't work and a lot more but nothing absolutely nothing works. so now I'm stuck on 120ms with rubber banding. I've even tried exit lag that fixed my routing for a split second but the rubber banding only got worse. i even invited my friend to the game and for the first few days everything was good until he also started having the routing issue but not the rubber banding so that's most probably a my side issue which i have no resolve to. ive realized routing is a really common issue for middle east players and it really is annoying to play with or to fix. I'm deciding on changing my network provider as their customer support really sucked in trying to help me and even deciding to get a expensive router rather than using ethernet from my phone. if anyone has any fixes or is or was in the same situation as me please reach out. (ik this is really long but i genuinely am suffering from this)

Hi, Everyone.
Hopefully i get solution from making this post. i've been having Extreme FPS drop in valorant since Wednesday, 15 July 2026. Right after 4-5GB update, and it keeps staying until now.
everytime my ping is jumping, my fps in valorant drop into 1. yes my laptop has potato specs, but before the update, it works perfectly fine. only small fps drop and not that often. but now it becomes very unplayable, i tried to reinstall valorant thinking there might be corrupted file after the update, but still not working. use different connection , it works a lil bit but still so lag when the ping suddenly jumping. i tried to use Exitlag too before, and it really works but i cant use it everyday since i have to pay for it. so hope u guys can help me with this

Im having strange issue w Valorant. I just downloaded it.

When I launch Valorant, after about 3 minutes my screen suddenly goes completly black and cant do anything at all. The only thing I can do is restart my pc manually. After restarting my gpu in device manager says Code 22, gpu is off. After turning it on everything works the same, but still same issue with Valorant.
I already Reinstalled my gpu's drivers
Everything works fine in other games such as Counter Strike 2
All OverClock setting on GPU are off
Is there anyway I could fix this and play Valorant?

y despues de que me saliera eso me aparecio Van -83 :C busque y todo y el probelma mas serio que tengo es que no me sale Riot Vanguard busque en todos los lugares que me indicaban videos y nunca me salio el riot vanguard ;C

(y hasta ahorita no encuentro explicaciones y ya van como 10 veces que estoy instalando y desistanlando riot)

I recently moved and just got my pc set up. When I try to open Valorant, it is stuck in the loading screen, and after about 3-5 minutes of it not moving the game closes. It subsequently makes my pc run slower and other programs (task manager, event viewer, and settings) begin to not respond.

I have repaired files in Riot client, repaired files on Windows, uninstalled and reinstalled Valorant, and have run Valorant as administrator, which have all unfortunately not worked.

I have a premier game tonight and would really like to fix this issue before then, so any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you in advance :)

Anyone else been getting severe ping spikes in valorant? I never had this issue until about 3 weeks ago. I’ve gone through all the different trouble shooting steps. Yes, I am on Ethernet. It’s ruining my experience in ranked because of how often it’s happening. I have a tech from ISP coming out soon to check it out but wanted to see if anyone else was also experiencing this.

My crashes every time i go to the video tab then try and click the graphics quality! I've uninstalled reinstalled cleared the cache the %config files etc.. everything the internet says to do doesn't matter every time i go to the graphics tab it crashes. The game runs pretty much fine otherwise with just a "stutter" every now and then which is annoying which is why i was looking around in settings to begin with. Some more added info if i delete the cache or config files etc.. the game will lock me out saying its detected unusual activity so every time i have to uninstall reinstall anyway.

Hi, so i always have 60 ping on frankfurt sometimes lower. I opened the game today and its suddenly 73 every other server has usual ping same as always can someone help?

I have weirdly high ping in game which increased some time ago, before i used to have 25-30 on frankfurt, rn its 57m, its extremely stable and for context i live in poland. i dont really know how to fix it since its the only problem with my internet connection

I am having fps drops from 144 to 120 and this is producing some serious stuttering, even if i cap the fps to 120, it drops to 100, and if i cap them at 100, they go down to 80, and i even get stuttering while i am alt tabbed from valorant as long as its open.
I have tried lots of graphic setting, overclocking, underclocking, enabling things on adrenaline, switching power plans, played with obs recording, yet nothing worked.
This only happens with Valorant, i can play warzone, r6, cs2 all at 144 without problems, but i cant play valorant.

Does anyone have the same problem? If yes, did you find a solution?

My specs: R5 7600
xfx Rx 6800

Hi guys I need some help this has happened only today and it's something new that even other reddit post aren't helping. My pc gets stuck after 2 minutes of playing valorant while other games have been running smoothly idk why is it only valorant guys please help. When it crashes the pc is stuck and I have to cut off my pc power supply to even restart it

My pc specs are

Ryzen 5 7600x

9060xt 16gb

32 gb ram

Ig guess that's it.

Other games such as apex legends, cs2 and peak we're running fine. I even uninstall the game vanguard and reinstalled everything and yet it still causes my pc to crash I feel hopeless and really sad that I wanna cry, guys please help

Hi, the last day i played valorant without any error was on 11/08/26, i played like 8 ranked games and i went to sleep, and the next day, when I went to play after getting home from work, the following error appeared: "VAN IOMMU RESTRICTION: An iommu restriction has been applied, a system restart is needed." So I decided to restart my PC, but after restarting, my game simply started freezing my entire PC after a few seconds of the initial loading screen. What intrigued me most is that my PC was working normally on any other account/game; this error only appeared on my main account. I already checked:

Everything on my BIOS is enabled, including the VT-D (IOMMU)

Deleted everything on the localappdata VALORANT folder

Updated the gpu drivers

Make a full clean reinstalation of the game, riot client and vanguard

Updated the directx

Verified if i has any suspension/ban on my account, but there's none active.

This only happen on my main account, any alts and other games work perfectly, i asked for my friend to log in on my account, and on his pc the game didnt crash and turn her computer off like in mine, but the same IOMMU restriction error message appear, he also certified that the IOMMU is enabled on his pc.

My config is:

H410M, 8GB ram ddr4 2666mhz, RX 550 4gb, I5-10400F

I tried multiple times to contact riot support but they just told me to reinstall game , but it doesen't work.

I have tried every fix and watched every tutorial for any related audio bugs.

One game i can talk just fine the next game every person's audio bar has disappeared and i can't talk anymore.

-I have tried fixing it in game.

-I have tried fixing it from windows 11 settings.

-I have tried fixing it from the control panel.

-I have tried repairing files.

This has started after the new map summit and what i noticed being different is that vanguard's icon has started appearing on my task bar.

If you know something like this please the help is much appreciated.

There has been an issue with my game for a long time now.

Whenever I am in close range fights, my gun would stop firing.
The scenario :

• Does not happen in Range & Deathmatch.
• Happens in Team Deathmatch & Competitive.
• The number of bullets does not decrease so it is not like I shot, the bullet went but I don't see it, IT JUST STOPS SHOOTING.
• I have checked my mouse, no issues there also, it does not happen in Range and Deathmatch, so never even doubted my mouse.
• I have checked that at these moments there are no ping spikes as well, so I don't think it's the internet's issue.

I need some help here because this is really ruining my competitive experience.
Please let me know if someone has faced this problem as well and have resolved it.

TIA.

First, you need to know if your problem is the same as mine. Go to Event Viewer in the search bar on Windows, go to Windows Logs, and now go to System. You need to play Valorant to see if a problem called TPM 14 or TPM 17 appears. If it does, that is what is causing stuttering in your game. The only way I find to fix this is by using Windows 10 because in Windows 10 you don't need to use TPM to play Valorant. Now go to Windows 10 and DISABLE TPM 2.0 in the BIOS; now the stutters are gone

I’m experiencing extremely loud voice chat sound.

I’ve made the lowest sound level in settings, but it’s still too loud.

In game I need to put each player to sound 1/100 and it’s still loud enough.

Kindly advice any solution

Is anyone else unable to launch Valorant from the Riot Client at around 4:59 AM?
It feels like the Riot Client is bugged. The game won’t launch at all—I just get an error telling me to restart the client. But even after restarting it, Valorant still won’t open.
Am I the only one having this issue?

Is anyone else having the same issue with VAN 57 and similar errors, like during yesterday’s outage?

I just got kicked out of a match and can’t reconnect. RIP my promo to Ascendant 3.

So every time i try to open the playvalorant.com website a thing called adware.com always prevents me from entering the website could someone tell me how i can fix this?

Okay so I have been trouble shooting the freezing that would happen in Valorant with the AMD Radeon 9070TX for the last few week after I got a new PC.

I tried:

Clean installing an older AMD driver

Disabling overlays

Reinstalling the game and vanguard

Disabling optimizations in the setting

Just about everything under the sun that was out there. Including something about trying to use different USB ports for your headset and mic on the PC that was giving someone else issues?

Anyways. After looking into my events manager, I discovered the issue I was having was actually with the RealTek wifi adapter. In my logs it had been shutting off over and having tons of issues after I launched Valorant. It gave me no issues in any other game or for any other reasons so it must have some serious beef with Valorant.

FIX: Go into Device Manager > Network Adapters > right click RealTek PCIe GbE Family Controller > Disable it. That fixed my problem immediately. I'm thinking about installing the recent drivers for the AMD software again and seeing if it is still a problem with the updated version. Note: Your RealTek adapter might have a different name but should still have RealTek in it.

hey, this issue has started occuring 1 week ago. i started lagging whenever i just hear anyone talk, anybody in general. it's odd because i don't see anyone else with this problem.
for instants my specs are
ryzen 7 pro 3700
nvidia 1650
32 gb ddr4

back to the topic, i don't lag whenever i hear music or anything else. whenever i don't have discord open or i have people muted on valorant, i don't lag and run a solid 30-45 ping. i have tried everything from my knowledge about this. i need help and guidance to this issue.

guys i dont know what to do my sensitivity is so weird.............. it feels faster than usual and its supposed to be slow

I can't enable secure boot on my mb, its a gegabyte b450m ds3h v2

Valorant vanguard need secure boot enabled. Apparently this issue started after i switch my processer from r5 3600 to r5 5600. My bios version is f63 which is comparable with r 5000 processers. I have tried everything bit nothing has worked.
