If you’re tired of the VAN 185 error randomly popping up in Valorant after a few rounds, you’re not alone 😤 I kept getting it even after reinstalling the game, resetting my network, and doing all the usual tricks.
But after trying everything, I finally found what actually worked for me ✅
In this video, I’ll walk you through the exact steps I followed to fix the VAN 185 error once and for all.
🛠️ Fixes That Worked For Me:
🔹 Fully close Riot Client and delete corrupted folders
🔹 Add “-disable-auto-launch” to the Valorant shortcut
🔹 Enable "Run as Administrator" and "Disable fullscreen optimizations"
🔹 Clean uninstall Riot Vanguard using Revo Uninstaller
🔹 Run sc delete vgc and sc delete vgk in Command Prompt
🔹 Log out everywhere from Riot account
🔹 Try Windows network reset
💡 Follow the steps carefully and make sure to restart when needed. This method helped me get back into matches without errors 🎮
