This only happens sometimes but whenever I select my champion and it's ment to go in the screen where you can see other champions (eg like the enemy has veigar, gangplank ect and you have twitch) it doesn't load up and all it says is "Game is still in progress" worst of all is that I can't notify my team of this and I'll probably be reported as AFK which sucks because I am not.
Because of this I have now lost my streak as Neeko too :(
Astrid Hallow5 votesAnd exiting the game and reloading it doesn't work, I have tried. :(
theTeebeutel1 votesHaving the same issue. The game just wont load, even after I deactivated my anti-virus software it didn't work.
Fönikku5 votesOk, when the client says "Game is still in progress", keep the client open. Then, open your task manager, try to find League executable with (TM) at the end, end the task. That very client with the message will disappear and show you "Reconnect" button, click it and it will get you to loading screen immediately, Hope that helps until Rito Game finds a solution or even acknowledge the bug.
Camille Ferrøs3 votesWith all these champion select and loading crashes and bugs, I can't stop thinking its because of TFT and the servers can't handle all of this.
Astrid Hallow1 votesDo you mean like TFT existing in general or people going onto TFT? (This same thing has happened to me once in TFT)
Camille Ferrøs1 votesTFT being on this client may be the reason for the crashes and bugs more than usual. As we all know the client was garbage since it was released and with that in mind and TFT now being on it might be why its so bad. The client barely operated with just SR and ARAM and now with a whole new game on it... or im just wrong who knows.

Got1nut1 votessame thing keeps happening to me, hope i dont get a ban :/
Nobniemah1 votesI believe I've found a piece to the puzzle.
The same thing happened to me around two weeks ago -- the countdown to the game got to 0, and the client came up with "Game is still in progress...". Oddly enough, I could hear my teammates through League Voice, and they were in the game. For whatever reason, I was not. Mind you, this was also after I downloaded and installed Patch 9.9.
So I reported the bug and started looking things up. This was the most recent thread on this subject that I've come across, hence why I'm posting the solution here. (For reference for the following explanation, I'm using Windows 10.)
I was considering uninstalling and reinstalling. I at least went to kill the game in Task Manager by going to Apps > League of Legends (32 bit), clicking the dropdown arrow, right-clicking on one of the instances of League, and clicking on "Go to details". I was taken to the Details tab and had right-clicked on one of the instances there. I was about to click "End process tree" when I noticed something odd:
There's a column called UAC virtualization, UAC standing for "User Account Controls". In that column, one instance (which I imagine was the instance of the game itself), UAC virtualization was listed as "Enabled". All other instances (which appeared to be tied to the game client) were listed as "Disabled". I'm still trying to grasp what all of it means, but the keyword that stuck out to me was "security".
My first thought was Windows Defender Firewall. Whenever a patch is done, a Firewall popup window comes up, asking what networks to allow League to operate on/through. So I went to Control Panel > System and Security > Windows Defender Firewall. On the sidebar, I clicked on "Allow an app or feature through Windows Defender Firewall" and scrolled to all of the instances of League of Legends. Sure enough, one of the instances was not allowing League to communicate through private networks. I was at home and plugged into my router by ethernet (which I think automatically counts as a private network). So what I did was click on the "Change settings..." button, click the checkbox under the "Private" column, and click "Okay". I also checked my Wi-Fi Settings, and my home connection had somehow changed to Public, so I changed it back to Private.
After that, I killed the game in Task Manager how I was going to above, reopened League, and logged in. Lo and behold, it took me straight into the game. Unfortunately, that took so long that I was deemed a "Leaver" for that game and was given a Leaverbuster warning. (Not gonna lie, I'm not happy about that, considering I never go AFK and I sent them a bug report, but it's whatever.) The only reason I got one, though, is because I was troubleshooting. If you know about the fix beforehand, you shouldn't run into this problem. (My roommate had the exact same issue and I guided them through the fix. It worked, and no Leaverbuster warning was given.)
Hope this helps!
YoNightmare71 votesIt's a relatively new issue on my side and I just got a leaverbuster for it even though i can't do anything about it, it's really frustrating how shit this client is.
Fizzfood1 votesThis happened to me last night. Feelsbadman.jpg
randomnest name1 votesCtr Alt Del doesnt work. Someone said to close the launcher TM tab but the thing is, it doesnt even open. All i can close is the client itself, then u open it again and nothing "Game in progress" This happens to me 1/3 ranked games Like wtf bro. Fix this shit or disable ranked until you do.
BrightWîngs1 votescheck background processes
xXSummonerNameXx1 votesMe too. Rito needs to undo all the lost LP from those
IxenQidansecor1 votesI posted a response to this bug in another thread. Just log off of your desktop as soon as you realize the game wont load then log back on to your desktop and log back into your league account. You might be a little late to the game, but this bug happens a bit to me and this solution has worked every time.
BrightWîngs1 votesOpen tassk manager and find the ACTUAL league of legends task not the client and end the task then you will be given the option to reconnect
BigFBear1 votesThis bug exists since 6 weeks to hundreds/thousands of players.
Thorn Fierce Red1 votesThe only way to solve this is by Long Off ur PC but when u return to the Match , Game automatic punish u with have more then 5 Minutes afk and will not have any experience or IP won.

Grahf Emperor1 votesI solved the problem. I figured why not try running in compatibility mode for win 8. Im running windows 10. right click desktop ICON > properties > compatibility. add me IGN DoragonMizu
RingoRampage1 votesHi,
i solved it with the help of the hextech repair tool and the league customer support. My Kaspersky was the culprit. I deinstalled it years ago but there was still a service running that i couldnt shut down. I downloaded a remover Tool from their Homepage and could clean the mess up. I hope this helps some1.
