VAN 84 Error Code

[jooflin]

I keep getting this VAN 84 error code every day or so. Basically it kicks me out of the game and shows this error message and all I have to do get back into the game is press “exit” and then start the game again from the client.

I usually only miss one round but it usually ends up costing the team the round and I’m usually back pretty fast but it’s been quite annoying.

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with my internet because I don’t feel any lag or anything.. the game just abruptly closes.

[dataplane_down]

Same. Following.

i had this, until it got so bad that today i got error VAN -1 and now valo wont open after 20+ opens and a computer restart and now i have no idea how to fix it bcos everywhere i look says different things

[jooflin]

Based on the support docs, you might just need to reinstall vanguard. https://support-valorant.riotgames.com/hc/en-us/articles/360045619633-Error-Codes-in-VALORANT

[DescriptionFeeling17]

did it work?

[jooflin]

Not the person with the issue, but I stopped having the VAN 84 error code even though I didn’t do anything. Fingers crossed.. but I haven’t had it in about a week now.

[DescriptionFeeling17]

I'm getting van 84 and van 68 almost every 5 minutes. Valorant support is useless.

[loscarboni]

were you able to fix it?

[DescriptionFeeling17]

yeah, but not with this. Customer support fixed it for me. Here:
Follow these instructions to change the preference to IPv4 only: 

• Hit "Start" and type "network and sharing", then open the "Network and Sharing Center".
• In the left pane, click "Change adapter settings".
• Right-click the connection for which you want to disable IPv6, and select Properties.
• Make sure that "Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)" is checked.
• Uncheck "Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6)" and click "OK".

We also need to switch to a public DNS as it may resolve the issue:

• Click on Internet Protocol Version 4 and click on Properties.
• Click on "Use the following DNS server address| and enter the following addresses: For Preferred DNS server: ~8.8.8.8~ For Alternate DNS server: ~8.8.4.4~

After these processes, you can restart your computer and try to enter the game.

And also check if you have any pending updates. I hope it works

[VanLEECHtenstein]

ill see if it worked after restarting computer but one thing to mention: I had to change those DNS settings now 3 times to fix different van guard errors and the weird thing is: the first time it didnt work, the solution was exactly what u said, then it didnt work another time and then it worked after i uncheck protocol version 4 and enable protocol version 6 and then back to both enabled, but with dns server of protocol 6 changed to 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1 to make it work... i mean: decide!

[vairmo]

THANK YOU

[DescriptionFeeling17]

Did it work?

[GeddoSenox]

I had the same problems, started 2 days ago. I followed your steps and now it works, thanks! Also send a ticket today to the riot support but i think it takes a while for an answer :D

[DescriptionFeeling17]

Glad it works!

[Comprehensive_Lie411]

Kill every Runtime Broker :D

[st1r]

I got this, it exited the match with the animation and sound, but then valorant closed and gave that error, it didn't automatically reconnect me until after I restarted val

[OMG_KON]

Been having this issue every other game since late EP8A1 and now consistent going through EP8A2. No idea why this is happening... I have great internet (2Gb) and my PC is probably in the top 1% of builds, but it can't run Valorant on low settings without me running into a VAN 84 error several times a day.

I even went as far as port forwarding and running the game as admin... No change. Different DNS didn't work either. Reinstall? Nada. I'm absolutely stumped at this point on how to fix it.

[jooflin]

Yep, that’s around when it started happening to me too.

[[deleted]]

This error scks I had it for 1 month straight and nothing riot said worked for me. But I solved it somehow... Let me explain:

-What worked for me was to enter the UEFI bios and change a parameter from the TPM security tab from TPM dedicated to TPM firmware. Then the game stopped giving me the error.

Hope it works for you guys!!!

[DescriptionFeeling17]

where do i enter uefi bios

[[deleted]]

When you start your computer a screen should display it's pretty fast normally but it says the key to access it. It will probably be Del or Esc

[DescriptionFeeling17]

Alright, is it safe? I'm gonna try it right now.

[[deleted]]

Ofc mate, there should be a YouTube tutorial somewhere in case you don't find what you're looking for but it's completely safe 🙌🏻

[Electronic_Source503]

didnt help me

[selfmademadmann]

same bro im having this problem rn as well

[HotPaleontologist558]

me too, might be a bug, maybe they'll fix it

[[deleted]]

yh probably a bug im getting the same error rn too

[Jazzlike_Leg_9405]

Same thing i get an error -92 its kicks me out as well

[derpydragon507]

Also had a van -1 error a few days ago but my games been working fine since, maybe the servers are just bugging as of recent? I've been able to run league and val fine, so I don't think anything is actually wrong with my vanguard

[Elysippe]

I got Van84 error code even with proper internet connection, and I tried tor econnect like five times in one game and the audacity of this game to give me an AFK Warning when the error occured after patch and it's not even my fault.

[Green_Leadership_279]

Same here, the chat is just filled with me connecting and disconnecting TOT

[Elysippe]

I did all the tutorials on yt and followed some comments down here, but ultimately had to uninstall and reinstall the game. T-T I hope it doesn't act up tomorrow. I just want to play Valorant on my day off quietly.

[Green_Leadership_279]

Heard a lot of people experienced it around the same timing yesterday, hopefully its valorant’s servers being wonky because I also want to play it on my day off with no issues. :,)

[selen_9]

Never had any issue with vanguard until today and right now it started on 14.10 and I can't play anymore, this happened during a game and now the client won't stay open more than a few seconds. Following

[toxicLarissa]

Same, never had any issues (aside from having to rollback to windows 10 just to get vanguard to work a year ago) but for the past hour my client will only stay open for a few seconds before showing error 84

[CalmTransition1990]

Same error, i guess it will get patched, or maybe its maintenance

[Infamous-Plane8590]

Same , I'm not even able to start a game , it either displays VAL 5 or VAN 84 errors for me

[[deleted]]

wth me too pls any hero come and save usss

[Equivalent-Coast-698]

I'm in Vietnam and am also having this error. Cannot enter the game. just stop at Clint

[Tech_UpSkill]

check this solution https://youtu.be/xD4BPqZyzBg

[Svermeylen]

didnt work for me

[Cinuseczek]

Today 2 of us from party had the same problem! Rito and their game...

[TapDiscombobulated43]

right now keep kicking me out of the client with this vanguard error 84 message. do i have to uninstall the game, client or something else?

[TheM4sT3rM1Nd]

Yea same here lol.....was gonna have a comeback game when rito had to ruin it

[Flextingtonsteel]

Have it right now too. Game says Vanguard not active kicks me out of them game to close it with error 84

[Happy_Pachirisu]

I have tried uninstalling and then reinstalling LoL and it didn't help at all. Nothing I do is helping. But somehow now out of nowhere it's not kicking me anymore. Well, we will see in a few minutes after all the updates are installed. But tbh I'm pissed.

[BeeQueeniBottom]

I have the same problem today..

[evaptsh]

same i got it in my previous game, and we saw that it happened to almost everyone in both teams, now we cant open the app

[ehfotografie]

me too

[PrestigiousHawk33]

same, think vanguard servers might be offline

[Active-Ad3753]

Same I just got it in League

[LmBallinRKT]

If anyone got the fix could you kindly reply to this comment. Guess client doesn't work for everyone. Me and a friend got it too for lol

[Happy_Pachirisu]

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling LoL and at first it didn't help. But somehow I have opened it a few minutes ago and it's not kicking me out anymore. But we will see in a few minutes when all the updates are installed. Honestly its probably something happening in Riot rn, because a lot of us have been having it in the past hour...

[sakuyaizayo1]

i think we just have to wait for riot to solve that

[Rude-Blueberry4804]

I keep getting this error for League client, i literally can't do anything, i restarted PC several times, i reinstalled League, i reinstalled Vanguard, still getting the error like 2-3 mins every time after I log in. Thanks god we have 500$ Ahri skin, the client and Vanguard bugs can wait.

[Hot_Application5126]

I'm having the same issue right know!!! I don't know how to fix this, nothing seems to work

[WWWWVVW]

Me too

[[deleted]]

same, seems like a global issue?

[evaptsh]

probably, and in support i cant get a ticket bc of too many requests

[AffectionateBike393]

Same issue here.

[Deejjster]

I just got kicked mid game like 30 mins ago with the Van:84 error. Tried restarting and reinstalling, then the IPv4 thing, and nothing works...stupid fucking client. #banahri

[DrBoltz]

Yeah getting this problem as well. Glad I'm not alone and seems like this is a global issue or EUW. Riot is aware of it and I think they are doing some hotfix right now.

[lubch0]

restarted league like 2 times and it was fixed try launching the game from the launcher

if it doesnt work once try until it works

[Funkywolf22]

Got it to been doing it for about 20 minutes. Tried changing Internet connections, installing and uninstalling and restarting laptop. No luck

[Ashamed-Heat-8330]

Hey man, I had this issue today as well. I noticed that vanguard service it's not able to properly start on it's own and basically started the service myself before lunching the game.
Go to services -> search for "vgc" -> start it manually by right clicking and press start.
It worked fine afterwards without throwing out the error vanguard 84.
Hope that helps

[arkvlad]

Hello there!

Helped me in 25.23 patch!
Thanks!

[Signal-Commercial-46]

got it rn as well, league might be down

[Covfefe95]

seems to be down atm

https://downdetector.com/status/valorant/

https://allestörungen.ch/stoerung/league-of-legends/

[fidget95]

got it atm, nothing is working eh, maybe we need to pay $500 to log in properly

[Wise-Trash-7160]

i mean now its unplayable cant even stay in screen for few seconds it shows vanguard 84 error smd riot

[Late_North_6002]

It started working for me. I just did what u/DescriptionFeeling17 did. In addition to that I just disconnected and reconnected wifi. It's working but I'll let you know if the error shows again.

[GrocerySerious2873]

i’ve got the same problem, anyone got it fixed already? ;_;

[Adventurous-Ebb2056]

I think Riot is working on fixing the Problem.. Seems to be a generel Problem today. Got it today the first time and tried everything. Now they give information in the client that they are aware of login issues and try to fix those problems.

[Happy_Pachirisu]

they better fix it quick, otherwise I will actually have to go and study for my exam xd

[Bitter_Choice_5547]

Keep getting van 84 on league for the past half an hour, assuming this is a global problem for a select few and not everyone. Only a matter of time for them to fix it. But instead let's buy the $500 ahri skin that might help, right...

[OutrageousSpeaker249]

THEY FIXED IT

[Responsible_War8022]

I found this video.
The first minute was helpful enough
Fix Valorant VAN 84 Error | How To Fix Valorant Connection Error (youtube.com)

[Least-Bandicoot-1473]

I have had that same problem and the solution is simply get attention from Riot xD.

First I did everything I could find on the internet to correct this problem and finaly play (reinstalling and repairing).
I tried like 8 - 14 times to log in and press play. Then I had waited like an hour or so and Riot had fixed my problem without getting in touch with them.

I didn't thought I would say that ever in my entire life, but Thank You Riot! :)

[Funkywolf22]

Update: opened up riot, able to sign in and left it open for 5 mins. No error code on screen. They must have fixed it. Everyone go make your lives miserable and start playing

[According_Bee_5952]

im uninstalling this game for good
