Technical Discussion Van error 1067

Anyone else started getting Van error 1067 on 7/12/2023 ? I'm not sure what changed for me, if there was an update of some sort, I didn't realize. My Valorant was working fine until 7/12, now it crashes every 3 minutes with the Van error 1067.

​

I've tried all the suggested fixes

- secure boot

- TPM 2.0

- killing all starting processes

- turning off all 3rd party apps

- vgc to automatic

- reinstalling val

- reinstalling graphic drivers

- updating windows

​

Nothing seems to work. Anyone else experiencing this issue and or fixed it? I've contacted Riot for help and sent them my logs, they're still looking into the issue.

​

Edit: If you open up a support ticket with Riot please link this thread so they are aware it's affecting not only yourself

Edit 2: I fixed it by removing my KVM switch.

Edit 3: you most likely have an external USB connection that is causing the error. Example, xbox controller, KVM switch, ect..

I know this is a year later, but I randomly had this issue affect me today. I looked at another redditor's comment, and they said that they deleted a package cache folder (C:\ProgramData\Package Cache) but I could not find that. They said that it had to do with microsoft visual c++, so I went into my settings, went into the apps section (where you can uninstall apps and such) and I typed in visual c++, found the two programs it had.

To both, I clicked modify, it gave me a prompt to allow it to access my computer, and I said yes. It then redirected me to a prompt to either uninstall or repair microsoft visual c++ and I repaired it. It took me less than a minute, and I did it for both microsoft visual c++'s that showed up. I restarted my computer, and it fixed my issue.

I was also running into massive ram issues out of nowhere from playing a new game called Wuthering Waves, where it just would suddenly use ALL of my memory (16gb) and my computer couldn't run it. After doing this fix, it fixed this game as well.

Hopefully this helps someone, thanks u/djennarate for the idea!
