Ran into this issue myself! The side by side configuration error in Valorant usually means there's a problem with the Microsoft Visual C++ runtime library. Try reinstalling all the Visual C++ packages from Microsoft's official website. Make sure to download both the x86 and x64 versions for your Windows version. After that, give your PC a good restart and see if Valorant starts up without the error. Worked like a charm for me!

Honestly, just reinstall Valorant. Had this error, tried everything, and nothing worked until I just uninstalled and reinstalled the game. Took less time than trying to figure out what was wrong with Visual C++ stuff.

Just update your Windows, bro. Seriously, this error can pop up if your system is out of date. Windows updates often include the latest Visual C++ Redistributable packages. So, hit that update button and restart. Might save you the hassle of manually dealing with those Visual C++ packages.
