I've been trying to start a game since last patch and I get to champ select but when it comes time to loading screen it just gives me a reconnect button. When I click it the client "closes or minimizes" not sure and pops up again with Reconnect button. Now I'm gonna get banned for afk behavior. wtf.... Help!!

Piuli1 votesHey, I am having the same issue! What version of Windows are you running by the way? I've tried following all of the instructions in the FAQ as well as repatching and none of that has worked thus far. [sg-lux-2]
Jewbacca1091 votesSame issue in ranked TFT... lost 2 games because of that :) Running on recently clean installed Windows 7...
Piuli1 votesWere you able to get into the game at all though and start playing or did you attempt to try to connect to the game twice? I am running Windows 8.1 64 bit here.
Can't get into the game even when spectating or connecting to a bot game. I've even tried the tutorial and it says "Looks like your game crashed! Please wait while we fix things." while the timer is counting down. Hextech Repair Tool hasn't worked for me either as well as my drivers are all up to date.

Well, short answer is "no, I couldn't get in the game". However, PROBLEM SOLVED FOR ME :
I'm using Bitdefender Total Security. I had to add an exception not to the firewall but to ADVANCED THREAT DEFENSE settings in the "Protection" tab. Here's step by step :
1 - In Bitdefender : "Protection" 2 - "Settings" of "Advanced threat defense" 3 - "add applications to exceptions" 4 - The path for me is : C:\Riot Games\League of Legends\Game\League of Legends.exe 5 - I also added exceptions to client : C:\Riot Games\League of Legends\LeagueClient.exe AND C:\Riot Games\League of Legends\LeagueClientUx.exe
Hope it works for you guys!

DcrulesMarksman1 votesIf any one here is using "bitdefender" antivirus you need to go into the "Advanced Treat Defense" and mark all of the League programs to make them exempt
like for a tbh1 votesI had the same issue and just resolved it.
My antivirus software kept deleting a file that it thought was malicious called "stub.dll" every time I opened league.
I had to exclude that file from my anti-virus software.
I would recommend making an exclusion for the entire "Game" folder in "Riot Games\League of Legends\Game" on your anti-virus software.
Worked for me, hope it works for you too :)
