How to fix the Valorant Vanguard not initializing error
Essentially, this error seems to be a problem with the Vanguard software rather than Valorant, per se.
There are, then, a number of things you can attempt to do to get yourself back online.
- First, simply shut down Vanguard completely and try and go back into the software
- Secondly, close down Vanguard and reboot your machine entirely
- Third, you will have to go a step further and completely uninstall Vanguard. From here, reinstall the software and the error will, hopefully, be sorted
- It’s also worth shutting down your system once you’ve downloaded and installed the software
If you’re still struggling at this point, then it’s time to raise a ticket with the Riot developers and see if they can help you further.
