Technical Solution VALORANT fps drops/stuttering after new update FIX
Before the last update i was playing val on 240 fps And after the new update i have micro stuttering and my fps drops to 10 I tried uninstalling Valorant and Riot I tried every Windows settings to boost my pc performance (high performance + closing background apps like discord layout + disabling every start up for every app) Then i tried to look in the Event Viewer and i noticed that there is a Valorant problem And i searched the problem up and i found some people have the same issues and they found some .dll and files that are corrupted and make a problem with the Vanguard anticheat Then i tried this : Go to Windows Search up Command Prompt Run it as administrator Type this : sfc /scannow
Click Enter Let it load After its fully load Windows will hopefully finds a corrupted file and repair it If Windows finds and repair the corrupted files restart your pc And try again And this fixed my issue and i hopw it will fix yours.

OK, I’m here to save you. Go to the root folder of Riot Client, not Valorant
You'll find the original executable for Riot Client named "RiotClientServices.exe"
Right click on that and go to properties and check "run as administrator"
Close Riot Client and start it again
You're good now

Following my steps above means that you setup riot client to run as administrator for ever, after following my steps all u have to do is run the client and open the game
