* You have to put this code into a text file and rename the extension to '.ps1' and execute it as administrator (you can create a shortcut with 'run as admin'). Wmic path Win32_PnPEntity where 'name='Check Point Virtual Network Adapter For Endpoint VPN Client'' call enable Wmic path Win32_PnPEntity where 'name='Check Point Virtual Network Adapter For Endpoint VPN Client'' call disable So, if you want to play the game, you just have to restart your windows and close the vpn client (vanguard working and vpn off) and If you want to use the VPN, you have to close the vanguard anti-cheat and execute the script. To make this steps easy and fast (to re-enable vpn), i created a powershell script that do all the job. To Play Valorant, all i have to do is restart the PC and close the vpn client. Edit: Am I the only one thinking it is *very* scary that some anti-cheat software for a game has control over drivers loaded or not loaded on the endpoint? You basically gave your admin rights to that software.įor anyone that still want use the work pc with the VPN and play valorant without uninstall/reinstalling VPN, the workaround that i found is close the vanguard and restart the VPN Drivers and service. And you don't want to remove your security for a game. You'll need to ask Valorant/Vanguard's team, because they obviously detect security software as a cheat. How to solve? Well, Check Point won't do anything about that. See if you can find some kind of log for vanguard and check it. It seems that at some point vanguard has shown blocked drivers.

I already suspected that my checkpoint vpn had stopped working because of the Vanguard but today I paid attention to a message and guess what, it prevents my virtual network from starting.

The vanguard is an item added to the game that brings a lot of demotivation and problems, this that entrusts super permissions to a tool. If you use a VPN to work from home you can forget about playing Valorant, I confess that today I gave up the game for good. Vanguard simply prevents components from my system from being loaded, very nice. Check Point's Endpoint Security does a LOT of things, depending on blades active, so it could be easily considered a cheat (looks at your USB ports, has a driver on network level, checks process behavior etc.) Vanguard blocks services and drivers it deems 'insecure' or a cheat. Looking at the thread in the community and reading about vanguard (seems to be valorant's anti-cheat software) the issue is with vanguard, not check point.
