How to launch CS:GO without VAC

Trying to boot up CS:GO without VAC (Valve Anti-Cheat) sounds like you're planning some sneaky business, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt! The truth is, you really can't disable VAC for online play because it's Valve's way of keeping the game clean. But, if you're just looking to mess around with mods or practice offline, simply start CS:GO and choose 'Play Offline with Bots' or launch it with '-insecure' in your launch options. This way, you won't connect to VAC-secured servers, so no worries about getting banned. Just remember, any online activity needs VAC, or you're asking for trouble.

I've launched CS:GO with the `-insecure` option for mod testing all the time. It's perfect for when you want to play around without getting VAC involved. Just remember, no multiplayer fun without turning VAC back on!
