Riot turns on ability to turn off kernel-level anti-cheat tool

System-tray icon also lets you easily uninstall Vanguard completely.

Riot Games announced last night that a new update to the Vanguard anti-cheat system used in Valorant will let users disable and/or easily uninstall the kernel-level security driver via a system tray icon.

That doesn't mean cheaters can just turn off the anti-cheat tool and do whatever they want, though—Vanguard still needs to be installed and running to actually play Valorant. If you shut off the service from the system tray, you'll have to restart your entire system before loading up Valorant. And if you uninstall Vanguard altogether, it will automatically be re-installed when you launch the game, requiring another restart.

The system tray tool will also notify users when Vanguard blocks certain third-party apps from running on your system. Users can disable Vanguard at that point and run the suspect app normally.
