Valorant VAN 9005 Error: TPM, UEFI, and VBS Requirements

2026-10-14 · 8 min read

What Does VAN 9005 Mean?

VAN 9005 relates to Virtualization-Based Security (VBS). Vanguard expects TPM 2.0 and UEFI firmware configured for VBS.

Disabled TPM, legacy BIOS boot, Secure Boot off, Memory Integrity misconfigured, or Windows not reporting security features.

Confirm TPM in tpm.msc, UEFI mode in msinfo32, Secure Boot, and Memory Integrity in Windows Security — then reboot.

Open a support ticket with logs if settings are correct but VAN 9005 persists.

Next step

VAN 9001 and TPM 2.0 — check tpm.msc, enable firmware TPM, and know this is separate from hardware bans.

VAN 9003 means Vanguard needs Secure Boot — a firmware setting issue, not a ban. How to check msinfo32 and what to avoid.

VAN 9002 and Control Flow Guard — restore Windows Exploit Protection settings Vanguard expects.
