Battlefield 6 beta asking users to uninstall Valorant, here's the solution
Gamers were excited to play the Battlefield 6 beta this week, but they were caught off guard with a strange error message asking them to uninstall Valorant. This beta, from August 14 to 17, is to showcase new maps and game modes. Instead, it turned into a headache for some users because they couldn't launch the game due to this error. The problem is associated with the anti-cheat software, a small program that runs in the background to stop cheaters and hackers from ruining online games. Battlefield 6 uses a new system called Javelin, while Valorant uses Riot's Vanguard anti-cheat system. These kernel-level anti-cheat systems see each other as a threat and shut down the game launch. Gamers immediately flocked to social media to find a solution, and Reddit is flooded with these posts. The players thought they had to uninstall Valorant to play Battlefield 6 Beta and started complaining on social media. To remove the confusion and clear things up, Riot's head of anti-cheat, Philip Koskinas, posted on X about this. He stated that both anti-cheat systems use the same technique and rush to protect the same game memory at the same time, seeing each other as a threat. He said both Javelin and Vanguard are compatible with each other, and players don't need to uninstall one to use the other. A simple solution is to completely close Valorant and all the related processes from the background to run Battlefield 6. If the problem persists, remove Valorant from auto-start apps and reboot your PC, then try running the game again. With Battlefield 6 scheduled for full release in October, developers are likely to work on resolving this conflict between anti-cheat systems to ensure both games can coexist without interruptions. For now, you have to follow these simple workarounds to play the Battlefield 6 beta. If these don't work for you, then sadly, you need to uninstall Valorant and juggle the installations to play both games.
