Why does my Valorant keep tabbing out?
It sounds like you might have something running in the background that's stealing focus from Valorant. Check if you have any software updates popping up, notifications from other apps, or even aggressive antivirus scans that could cause this. Also, try running the game in fullscreen mode instead of windowed or borderless, as it might help keep the game in focus.

Sometimes, it's the simplest solutions that work: try disabling any overlays you have running, like Discord overlay or NVIDIA's in-game overlay. These can interfere with the game. If that doesn't work, a full reinstall of Valorant might do the trick. It's a hassle, but it cleans out any corrupt files that could cause issues.
Check your display settings! If you're on a multi-monitor setup, make sure everything is aligned properly in your display settings on Windows. I had the same issue and fixing my display alignment stopped the random tabbing out.
I faced the same issue, and it turned out to be my push-to-talk key on Discord causing the game to minimize every time I used it. Changing the keybind solved it for me. Maybe check your keybinds and see if there's a conflict somewhere?
Honestly, just play something else. Valorant's great and all, but if it's giving you tech headaches, why bother? Plenty of fish in the sea.
