launcher problem?

black1303

I don't know if only I have that problem but I can't run the launcher after installing the patch with vanguard.
I uninstalled Vanguard and after restarting the computer the launcher popped up normally and i need download Vanguard again because it is required. After the installation vanguard and the required computer restart, launcher don't wanna run. again. I tried reinstall vanguard 5 or 6 times and still nothing. Any ideas?

I believe most people are having issues at this time. However it seems to me that you are having issues installing the game to begin with?

Try uninstalling the entire game, restart then reinstall the game with administrator privileges.

Let me know how you go!

Thanks,

Alright. Try this.

Open Task manager and "End Task" any Valorant or vanguard program. It can also be under "RiotClientServices".
Then go to "C:\Riot Games\VALORANT\live" and right click "Valorant.exe" and run as Administrator.

If that fails, repeat the above process, except instead of run as admin, select "Troubleshoot Compatability" and try that way.

May I also know the spec of your pc/laptop?

Thanks,

I tried both ways before the forum post and now and it didn't work.
my specs
Intel® Core™ i5 10gen 1035G1 1,0 - 3,6 GHz
8 GB RAM
1000 GB SSD
nVidia® GeForce MX 250 + Intel UHD Graphics
Windows 10 Home Edition

ok i have a solution for this problem.
the game works well.
support helped me.
I send to what they sent me

Open CMD as Administartor

Type set OPENSSL_ia32cap =: ~ 0x20000000 and press Enter
Restart the computer and the game should start without a problem

If the command fails, go to the start menu and search for "environment variables" and run as administrator.
You will have the option to add a system variable

Variable name: OPENSSL_ia32cap
Variable value: 0x20000000

You must restart your computer after this.

This is a problem with Ice Lake processors.
