Update bug

So, When opening league riot client will open instead saying a "critical update is required; there are critical updates required. restart to apply" when I click "apply update" the application will close for a few seconds then open up with the same thing over and over no matter what I do it won't change (I've tried restarting my computer, deleting all of the league files, deleting league and reinstalling.)

I did it using the same method. ON MAC, if you search your computer for Activity Monitor and type Riot in its search bar, it'll come up with a few clients. Double click on them and hit quit on everything (including RiotClientServices) after they were all gone, mine worked again.

I just did this now and it worked. For anyone wondering how to do this ON MAC:

  • Go to desktop -Hit command + f -search "activity monitor" (and go to it) -search "riot" -double click (not side click) on all search results -force quit all of them

That fixed it for me!

I found the solution for Windows 10! If you are on Windows, open the league tab with the message, then take Task manager and shut down every instance of league you can, then run the league client with Administrator privileges, that is what fixed it for me!
