How to fix
Valorant VAN error code 1067
on Windows

Hi. I can't launch Valorant for the past few days - I keep getting VAN error code 1067. Any idea on how to resolve this?

Valorant, developed by Riot Games, is an acclaimed multiplayer first-person shooter that has captured the attention of players around the world. Despite its immense popularity and a large amount of effort the developers put into creating a smooth gaming experience, players can occasionally run into issues. One such problem that Valorant players on Windows encounter is the VAN error code 1067.

At the heart of this error often lie the settings of the computer's hardware security features, specifically the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0 and Secure Boot. The TPM is a dedicated microcontroller designed to secure hardware by integrating cryptographic keys into devices. Secure Boot is a security standard developed by members of the PC industry to help ensure that a device boots only using software that is trusted by the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). When these are disabled, it might cause the VAN error code 1067.

However, other reasons could also be the cause of this issue. Sometimes, corrupted game files could be the root of the problem, as Valorant heavily relies on these data sets to run properly. System compatibility issues could also bring about this error if the game doesn't properly align with the current system specifications or settings.

Fortunately, there are instructions to fix this error, which include verifying the status and potentially enabling TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot, checking for and repairing corrupted game files, and ensuring system compatibility with the game. These are direct steps that can be followed to address the VAN error code 1067.

In addition to these steps, utilizing a PC repair tool like [d1] could contribute to a solution. While it may not directly resolve the VAN error code 1067, it could improve overall system performance by detecting and repairing system file errors, thus potentially eliminating some of the underlying causes that might lead to such issues. This tool is useful in maintaining system health and preventing various PC-related issues.

Fix 6. Enable TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot

These security features need to be enabled for certain games to run properly, including Valorant.

• Open your system BIOS. You can usually do this by restarting your computer and pressing a specific key (like F2, F10, or Del - it depends on your motherboard or laptop manufacturer) as it boots up.
• Look for an option related to TPM, likely found under a Security or Advanced tab.
• Enable the TPM option.
• In the Boot, Advanced, Security, or similar sections, you should also be able to turn on Secure Boot.
• Save and exit BIOS, usually by pressing F10.
• Your computer will restart.

Fix 7. Run Clean Boot to check for software conflicts

Other software running on your system, such as MasterPlus+, might conflict with Valorant. A clean boot ensures that only necessary services are running.

• Press the Win + R to open the Run dialog.
• Type msconfig and press Enter.
• In the System Configuration window, select the Services tab.
• Check the box that says Hide all Microsoft services.
• Click on Disable all.
• Go to the Startup tab and click on Open Task Manager.

• Restart your computer.

After entering the Clean Boot state, verify the presence of the Valorant VAN error code 1067. If the error no longer occurs, it indicates a third-party app or service is responsible. To pinpoint the specific culprit, systematically enable them one by one (or in groups), launch the game, and observe if the error reappears. Once the problematic app or service is identified, you can disable, uninstall it, or seek an update from the provider. To conclude, exit the clean boot state by re-enabling all services and apps and then perform a system restart.
