Tired of playing Riot’s competitive shooter Valorant? Or perhaps you want to take a break from it? If you’re looking for a guide to uninstall the game from your computer, look no further.

Whether you want to reinstall Valorant from scratch or simply remove the game from your computer, you have to uninstall it first. Uninstalling Valorant is simple and takes only a few minutes if your PC isn’t super slow. Here’s how to do it.

  1. Click on the start menu
  2. Search ‘Add or remove programs’
  3. Click on ‘VALORANT’
  4. Uninstall

Even after uninstalling Valorant, you may need to uninstall Vanguard separately from your computer. To remove the anti-cheat, follow the same steps as above, but instead of clicking on VALORANT, you have to find ‘Riot Vanguard’ on the list and click on uninstall.

Another way to uninstall Vanguard is to simply click on the Vanguard icon in your system tray at the bottom-right of your screen and select ‘uninstall’.

You can also uninstall Valorant in some other ways but the way listed here is generally faster and ensures you have completely wiped out both the game and the anti-cheat from your PC.
