How to fix the VAN 1067 error in VALORANT

You’ll find a ton of websites on the internet filled with crappy and basic troubleshooting methods that won’t help you at all. Therefore, we decided to head to forums like Reddit, Riot Games’ help section, etc. and compile the following list of proven methods to fix the VALORANT VAN 1067 error:

Restart Riot Client

The most common solution to the VAN 1067 error is to restart the game and Riot Client as well. Either you can directly press ALT + F4 on your keyboard or if the game isn’t closing for any reason, simply head to the task manager and force close it under the processes tab. Finally, relaunch the Riot client and boot up VALORANT to see if the error is fixed.

Uninstall MasterPlus+ Cooler Master

A few Reddit users were experiencing the same issue and wrote on the platform that uninstalling the MasterPlus+ software from Cooler Master fixed the VALORANT VAN 1067 error. The application allows you to control the overall RGB lightning of your PC. This may be interfering while launching the game. It may sound a bit weird but it’s worth giving a shot if you have MasterPlus+ software installed on your system.

Delete the Package Cache folder

Some users have suggested removing the Package Cache folder that’s hidden inside the Program Data. The Package Cache folder is somehow related to the Microsoft Visual C++ application that might be interfering with VALORANT.

First of all, head to your C drive and unhide all the folders using the file and folders option from the top bar. You’ll see the Program Data folder which will be a bit washed out since it’s a hidden folder. Simply open it and delete all the contents of the Package Cache. The VAN 1067 error should be fixed now and you can get back into the action.

Contact Riot Support

If none of the above methods work, getting in touch with the Riot Games support is your last hope of fixing the VAN 1067 error. The support team usually analyzes the log files to identify the exact cause of the problem. Therefore, they can guide you better than any other person in the world. All you need to do is raise a ticket on the official website. Then, chat with the support team until the VALORANT VAN 1067 error is fixed.
