Valorant Error 43 and the Fix
This time around, you should be grinding to get to level 50, if you have not already. But now are you facing an error while playing the game? Every time does Error code 43 keep popping up saying “There was an error connecting to the platform. Please restart your game client.” Is this error stopping you from playing the game with your squads? Well, here is the solution.
Error 43 pops up when there is system time out. In noobs' terms, when your system can't connect to the server. This generally happens when there is some issue with the server, say server maintenance. In case of error 43, the SOP is to wait for the server to be live again. But let's say the server is alright and still you are getting error 43, then you should restart your PC.
But today, many players have started getting error 43 in Valorant, including me, although the server is working fine. Well, I tried restarting my PC but the issue still persists. Every time I start Valorant, I am greeted with error 43. But worry not, as I have found out the solution! Thanks to the Redditor enigmax95.
