EDIT, FIXED: Thanks to Riot commenting below, the solution was to completely disable my antivirus. Adding val & vangaurd didn't work in my case but disabling it did. Thanks! - Region: NA - Type of Bug: Launch - Description: Freezes on launch splash screen. After a minute it gives me a crash error. - Video / Screenshot: - Steps to Reproduce: Launch game - Expected Result: Game launches past splash screen - Observed Result: Game no launch past splash screen - Reproduction Rate: 100% of attempts - System Specs: i9-10850k, 32gb hyperx ram, zotac 3090, hero 7 mobo, win 10 64bit
