VALORANT Windows Freeze And Crash Fix When Alt-Tabbing

#valorant #fix #crash #howto #gaming #pcgaming #solutions
It occurs when starting the game, alt-tabbing & closing the application. It happens every time at least once. if there’s someone that could relate to this issue too then they can try this fix i have found which can be a temporary solution to the issue until it gets patched out by riot, Right click on Valorant's short cut and go to properties - compatibility and check disable fullscreen optimizations & run as administrator and you also need to do it to other executables shown in the video

Been experiencing PC freeze up issues when I tab out of the game. Have to hard reset my PC because I can't click on anything on my desk top or task bar. Can't bring up task manager, Ctrl alt delete doesn't do anything.

Running windows 11 fully updated. Graphics driver up to date as well. Can use my PC all day without a freeze up so seems related to Valorant.

If the game refuses to start then uncheck the run as admin option

Есть решение проблемы если у вас 11 винда. Зайдите в стандартных параметров графики и уберите с первой функции галочку.
