Battlefield 6 open beta won't run if you have Valorant installed, thanks to Riot's anti-cheat (www.tomshardware.com)

This is wrong. You can't run both at the same time but there's nothing stopping you from having valorant installed

I believe you have to first close Vanguard and then you can get BF6 to launch. If you want to play Valorant again you have to fully restart your computer as there is no way to successfully relaunch Vanguard after closing it.

I don't know for sure, but I would assume this would effect people with League of Legends installed as well since it also uses Vanguard for anti-cheat.
