Uh hey, I run Windows 10 on my PC and I installed Shadow Defender...if you don't know Shadow Defender, it basically freezes a system drive to a certain configuration and reverts it back to that configuration whenever you restart or shutdown your PC. Thing is, I turned off Shadow Defender when installing Valorant, and then whenever I try to launch Valorant, it says that Vanguard needs to reboot my PC. I did this a couple of times already and it's getting quite tedious.

Only thing I can really recommend you to do is uninstall Shadow Defender

same situation, im running a internet cafe and many customers use that computer so freezing the system is a must. Vanguard doesnt load up during startup even if i exclude the folders associated with Vanguard/Valorant. i hope someone can help me with this one, most of my customers wants to play Valorant.

Same thing happening with me, I own a gaming center and Im running shadow defender to protect my computers.. I've tried everything, I installed the game in a partition thats its not in shadow mode, I put every possible folder that Valorant and Vangaurd use in C parition in the white list so the shadow defender dont protect and lock them but still the same.. it keeps asking to reboot every 2 boots that the PC does. Please I need a fix, and dont tell me to uninstall or disable Shadow Defender because i need it to protect the computers.

Vanguard always not starting with Windows 10

Uninstalled Shadow Defender and repalced it with Reboot Restore Rx 3. Works fine !

i don't trust Reboot Restore Rx, it cause windows 10 to Blue Screen of Death.
