Today we bring you an explanatory guide on How to fix LoL ‘required dependencies’ error with precise details.



The integration of Vanguard, Riot Games' anti-cheat technology, into League of Legends has inadvertently introduced some technical challenges. One of the most prevalent issues players have encountered is the 'required dependencies' error. This error, previously observed in VALORANT, has now made its way into the League of Legends experience.



The 'required dependencies' error typically arises when the game fails to install or access essential components necessary for its proper functioning. This can be due to various factors, including corrupted game files, conflicts with other software, or problems with the Vanguard anti-cheat system itself.


LoL: How to fix ‘required dependencies’ error



If you're encountering this error code, it's likely a local issue related to League or Vanguard's installation, rather than a server-side problem.



Here's a comprehensive guide to try and resolve it:



  • Restart: Often, the simplest solution is the most effective. Begin by restarting both your computer and League. This can sometimes resolve minor glitches or temporary conflicts.
  • Repair League: If restarting doesn't work, League's installation files might be corrupted. To check and repair them, navigate to the Riot Client settings, locate the League section, and click "Repair." This process will scan your League installation for any errors and attempt to fix them.
  • Reinstall Vanguard: In some cases, a faulty Vanguard installation can lead to this error code. To reinstall Vanguard, follow these steps:
  • Open your Control Panel.
  • Go to "Uninstall a program."
  • Find Riot Vanguard in the list, right-click on it, and select "Uninstall."
  • Restart your computer.
  • Launch League. The Riot Games launcher will prompt you to reinstall Vanguard.


Disable Antivirus:


  • Issue: Your antivirus software might be mistakenly flagging League of Legends and Vanguard as security threats, preventing them from installing or running correctly.
  • Solution: To resolve this issue, navigate to your antivirus program's settings and add the following applications to its whitelist:
  • Riot Games Launcher
  • League of Legends
  • Vanguard
  • Test: Once you've successfully added these applications to the whitelist, try launching League of Legends again. This should allow the game to start without any further interference from your antivirus.


Contact Support:


  • If the problem persists: If the previous steps haven't resolved the issue, it's time to seek assistance from Riot Games' support team.
  • Provide detailed information: When creating your support ticket, be sure to include the following information:
  • A clear description of the error message you're encountering.
  • A list of all the troubleshooting steps you've already tried, including the specific antivirus settings you've adjusted.
  • Any relevant screenshots or error logs that might be helpful.
