Game not launching after champ select
Issue started 5 days ago after downloading blitz, where the game would not launch following champ select, and would leave me on the client with reconnect button. Clicking on reconnect would not launch anything.
I have since completely uninstalled blitz, along with a number of other fixes I'll list below. I submitted a ticket to Riot support who went through troubleshooting and attempting to fix the issue, but was unable to resolve the problem and told me they "went ahead and escalated the case with [their] dedicated team", and unfortunately have not heard anything in 4 days.
These are the fixes I've attempted, either found online or direct from riot support:
- Attempted repair via Riot Client - says there are no issues
- Added all appropriate file paths to firewall
- Turned off IPv6
- Switched to public DNS - tried the recommended Google and Cloudfare DNS settings from Riot
- Disabled compatibility mode and launching as administrator
- Launching game on alternate internet connections - tried 2xWifi and 1xLAN connection
- Deleting configuration files and relaunching game (C:\Riot Games\League of Legends\Config and C:\Riot Games\League of Legends\Logs)
- Removing Riot Vanguard (deleting via CMD, removing Riot Vanguard folder from program files, deleting vgkbookstatus.dat) and relaunching game to reinstall
- Complete uninstall and reinstall, including; Deleting Riot folder from %localappdata% and %programdata%, clearing League of Legends folder in My Documents, uninstalling with Revo Uninstaller, scanned and cleaned with CCleaner, and did a clean boot for reinstall
While attempting to troubleshoot, there was 2 instances where I got a VAN-84 error, but resolved after a simple disconnect/reconnect of my internet. Otherwise it has remained consistent in that the game does not launch at all following champ select.
Hopefully I will hear something back from Riot, but any ideas on how I can fix this would be greatly appreciated!
