1. Check all LoL-related executable files Right-click each file one by one → Properties → Compatibility and check:

  • ✅ Uncheck “Run this program in compatibility mode for:”
  • ✅ If “Run this program as an administrator” is checked, uncheck it too.

Files to check:

  • RiotClientServices.exe
  • RiotClientUx.exe
  • RiotClientUxRender.exe
  • LeagueClient.exe
  • LeagueClientUx.exe
  • LeagueClientUxRender.exe

Typical locations:

  • C:\Riot Games\Riot Client
  • C:\Riot Games\League of Legends


2. Delete any leftover compatibility settings in the registry Win+R then type regedit and run it. Navigate to:


HKEY_CURRENT_USER └ Software     └ Microsoft        └ Windows NT           └ CurrentVersion              └ AppCompatFlags                 └ Layers


If you see any Riot or League-related paths here, delete them. Then do the same at: Navigate to:


HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE └ Software     └ Microsoft        └ Windows NT           └ CurrentVersion              └ AppCompatFlags                 └ Layers


Check here too.


3. Completely remove and reinstall Riot Client


Don't just uninstall from Control Panel — also delete the folder itself. Delete:


C:\Riot Games


Then also delete:


코드


C:\ProgramData\Riot Games


After deleting both, reinstall Riot Client.


4. Check Windows settings


Go to Settings → System → Troubleshoot → Other troubleshooters, then


run the Program Compatibility Troubleshooter to see if there are any applied settings.
