Finally, error code 46 is for platform downtime and is a problem with Valorant servers.

Fixing Valorant Van 135 error

This problem sure seems huge, but the “Van” in the error code shows that it is a Vanguard error. Below are some ways to fix this problem:

Method 1

Riot Vanguard is connected to the kernel of the player’s computer, and sometimes, Vanguard can have some problems loading up during boot. Restarting the computer can help fix this issue. If the problem persists, method two would be the go-to.

Method 2

This might be problematic to follow as it involves the uninstallation of the entire game. A clean reinstall (after uninstalling the game), along with Vanguard, can be effective.

According to reports, a majority of players have discovered this method to be working.

It is most likely to be fixed after the methods explained above. But if both fail to fix the problem, it is not the end of the world. Players can contact Riot support for assistance with this error, and they are available 24/7.

Valorant has had issues before as well, and Riot support has never failed to deal with any of them.
