League of Legends Freezes While in Game

My Shadow·11/21/2018, 7:47:16 PM·5 votes·2,805 views

Hey guys, so this has recently started happening to me. I will be in the game, and after some time or a few minutes in, I hear the windows notification sound and my game freezes completely. I am forced to go into control panel to sign out and back in, and it is making this game unplayable, as well as tilting my teammates. Any ideas on how I can fix this? Thanks!

This has literally been an issue for like almost 2 months and riot still hasn't commented from what I've seen or made any effort to fix it

If you are running your PC with Intel's Integrated Graphics, there is an issue with your Graphics Driver and it needs to be updated ASAP. If you are using a Graphics Card from a different manufacturer, the Graphics Driver may still need an update.


Checking to see if your Graphics Card Driver is up-to-date can solve many issues occurring with your game. Using the automatic tool from your Graphics Card Manufacturer can find and install updates to your driver.

I will provide a list of the common Graphics Card Manufacturers and their tools to update drivers:

If your drivers are up-to-date or if updating your driver does not fix your issue, download and run the Hextech Repair Tool as it can fix common problems with the game. You may also need to run a "Full Repair" from the League Client. This will repair corrupted files that could be causing game issues.

In the wrong case scenario, send a Support Ticket to Riot Support to get more thorough help. Make sure to attached the logs from the Hextech Repair Tool in your support ticket.

hey guys, i realize this post is quite old. but i started having the same issue awhile back. and after scouring the web for what felt like months and trying every supposed remedy, i think i have finally found the fix (that worked for me anyway ).

its easy and is also under the support ticket page on the riot website. simply launch the LoL client, while the client is still running go into ur league folder and delete ur config file (keep in mind all ur setting and key binds will delete so maybe write them down or screen shot) once that's deleted launch a single custom game, after it loads exit out, close out the client and reload the game. obviously you'll have to reset all ur settings again.... but its a small price to pay.

i have tried every fix out there and nothing worked. my pc would freeze basically every game right around the 18- 22 minute mark and i would have to restart my whole machine. since i tried this fix im currently 12 straight games with zero freeze. hopefully this helps anyone still struggling, cuz its super frustrating. ill update post if i see any changes... good luck

also just an fyi, i am currently running windows 10 , not an older version. and i play full screen, non of that windowed mode crap ;)

Hi so I don't know if I had the same issues however some freezing can be completely fixed if you meet the following, Windows 10 and you run solid state drives or SSDs windows ten has a never fixed issue where by default is shuts of all drives every twenty minutes and this usually gets reset after every windows ten update. To fix this you need to go to "Power & Sleep Settings - additional power settings" then Change plan settings- change advanced plan settings. find Hard Disk and change the turn hard disk off after (#) setting and change it to 0 or type in never. hope this helps some of you

What OS? Have you has similar issues in the past?

I never experienced this issue until this preseason, and now it keeps happening to me like every 4 or 5 games, and its pissing me off. Riot please fix you game, this bug is making the game tilting and keeps putting me behind because i have to log out of my computer, relog in, then reload into the game all because LoL cant work properly.
