Just uninstall it lol. Vanguard starts up with your PC which is super annoying, so if you're not playing Valorant for a while, uninstalling it is an option. You can easily reinstall it when you decide to play again.
Honestly, Vanguard isn't that big of a deal. It's there to keep the game fair. If you trust Riot Games, just let it be. Plus, constantly disabling and enabling it can become a bit of a hassle.
