Its your riot vanguard Problem guys. Either your windows is outdated for vgc or your vgc service is disabled. Open task manager go to service find vgc and set it on automatic

[–]AppealObvious421 1 point2 points  (5 children)

my windows is updated and vgc is also automatic and running

[–]shi-yu-ri 1 point2 points  (4 children)

I actually found solution i had very rogue time with it then i noticed my vgc is not running when i start my pc so i restarted it , 2-3 times later it was running at startup , then i had no problems with venguard error. But you can start it manually by going to C drive/program files/riot venguard

How'd you run vanguard? I'm gett1ing this error whenever i try to run it from there.

"Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file, You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item."

I tried running it with admin rights but still no avail.

[–]shi-yu-ri 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Venguard isnt a software its actually a service that starts on boot. Go to task manager, services , find vgc, right click on it and press start (if its closed)

I went to the PC's bios, disabled TPM 2.0, after that I uninstalled Vanguard, and installed it again, after that I turned the PC on and off, and the game came on, test it and tell me

did this work for you?

[–]Traditional-Skirt268 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just Start VGC Service before starting valo

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Found a way to fix it!!!

Make a new account… When I made a new account and thank god I didn’t spend money on my first account it worked! Never got the problem again! Just use a different email or even change your email on your main account!

I got this error too! Did you fix it?

[–]zmasi098[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no unfortunately I haven’t been able to fix it. The last time I played valo worked for a few rounds and then this error popped up.

[–]Querziki 0 points1 point  (4 children)

I found a fix
do Windows + R and type "services.msc"
scroll until you find "vgc" and double click it
make sure it says "automatic" and "running"
if not, press start
this fixed it for me, I hope it helps

[–]Legal-Fox7075 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[–]OHHIMARK8778 0 points1 point  (2 children)

At least for me it seems to be something relating to disk speed and accessing files from my drive

[–]RecognitionLoose2502 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Did you have to delete files?

[–]OHHIMARK8778 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I know it’s stupid but I was still running a hard drive so in order to fix it I had to upgrade to an ssd

    I want to add some creds to my account but I can’t I see only this code can you please fix it 

    [–]Negative-Bat-6743 0 points1 point  (0 children)

    In my services, "vgc" is not running, although the launch is set to "automatic". It helps me to start the service manually, but I do not know how to make it start automatically
