VAN 1067 is a Riot Vanguard startup or platform-security error, not simply a slow internet connection. On Windows 11, VALORANT requires TPM 2.0 and UEFI Secure Boot. Riot also notes that TPM 2.0 may be required on some Windows 10 configurations. Check the state first; do not change BIOS options blindly.

1. Confirm Windows, TPM, and Secure Boot

Press Win+R, run winver, and note your Windows version.
Run tpm.msc. Look for a ready TPM with Specification Version 2.0.
Run msinfo32. Check that BIOS Mode is UEFI and Secure Boot State is On.

If Windows reports Legacy BIOS or an unsupported disk layout, do not simply switch firmware modes: Windows may stop booting. Follow Microsoft and your PC or motherboard manufacturer's exact conversion and firmware instructions. Save a BitLocker recovery key before firmware changes if device encryption is active.

2. Restart Vanguard correctly

Restart Windows first. Then open services.msc, find vgc, set Startup type to Automatic, and start the service if it is stopped. If it stops again or VAN 1067 returns, uninstall Riot Vanguard from Installed Apps, reboot, launch Riot Client to reinstall Vanguard, and reboot again when requested.

3. Update and repair

Install Windows updates and official BIOS/UEFI updates only when the manufacturer recommends them for your exact model. In Riot Client, open profile → Settings → VALORANT and run Repair if available. Check Riot Service Status as well, but IP release/renew is not the primary fix for a Vanguard platform check.

4. If the error persists

Record the exact VAN code, collect a ZIP with Riot Repair Tool, and attach it to a Riot Support ticket. Do not clear TPM, reset Secure Boot keys, or flash BIOS using a guide for another motherboard.

See the TPM 2.0 guide and update troubleshooting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is VAN 1067 an internet error?

Usually it points to Vanguard startup or platform-security checks, so IP renewal is not the primary fix.

Should I enable TPM and Secure Boot in BIOS?

First verify their state. Follow the exact PC or motherboard guide because incorrect firmware changes can prevent Windows from booting.

Can I clear the TPM to fix it?

Do not clear TPM as a generic fix; it can affect encrypted data and Windows credentials.
