Where Are Valorant Config Files?
Valorant local config folder on PC under LocalAppData, with per-account GameUserSettings.ini files.
Last updated
Valorant keeps local client config in a VALORANT folder under LocalAppData. Account-specific settings sit in subfolders named by Riot account ID, each with a Windows folder holding GameUserSettings.ini.
Rank and inventory live on Riot servers. Local files cover graphics and client behavior, which is exactly what breaks launches.
Where Valorant stores this, by platform
%LOCALAPPDATA%\VALORANT\Saved\Config
Contains per-account subfolders (long ID strings) each with Windows\GameUserSettings.ini. Some builds name the folder WindowsClient instead. Multiple ID folders mean multiple accounts used this PC. Edit with the game closed.
Frequently asked questions
How do I hand-edit Valorant graphics settings?
Edit GameUserSettings.ini inside your account folder with the game closed. Graphics and client options live there. Set read-only afterward if the Riot Client keeps overwriting your tweaks.
How do I reset Valorant settings?
Delete GameUserSettings.ini (or the whole Saved folder) with the game closed. Valorant regenerates defaults on next launch. This fixes most unlaunchable-graphics situations.
