If you have played enough Unrated or Competitive, there must have been at least one moment when you wanted to uninstall Valorant. Well if this is true then worry not you are not alone. No matter if you are a hard stuck Iron or Platinum. There are some people that can ruin the fun by making you want to quit forever. The problem is, Riot’s launcher doesn’t exactly give you the option to remove the game, rather only to repair its files. But that doesn’t mean there is no way you cannot get rid of it. So here is how you can remove Valorant from your system and uninstall it.
