If you've installed some new software that's downloaded online then it might be a virus affecting the pc, thus val cant run due to insufficient ram or cpu that's being hogged by said virus. I would suggest running a free scan from malwarebytes, just download it from online and run it.
If it detects any issues with the pc then you can try deleting the software causing the issue and run another scan to check if the issue is solved, otherwise run 'tron' if you think the virus/trojan/malware is dangerous and can't be removed by just uninstalling the malicious software. Btw, tron will delete ur pc and fully wipe it, so run it as a last resort after consulting ur parents.
If your talking about restore points on Windows then yes, it will restore a pc back to that point and delete any software it has installed after that point. But if you don't have any restore points then there's no point making one now, as the pc will come back to this point and you'll have just gone in a circle.
If you're talking about resetting ur pc with the files still intact then nothing will happen as the issue will remain after the reset, if you were to fully reset with everything deleted in the reset, then ur pc might work with no issues. No guarantee in this second option as I don't know what issue ur pc has.
Literally same thing happened to me today too. Game randomly wouldn't open, task manager would say "BoostrapPackedGame" and wouldn't let me click end task on it. Tried reinstalling Valorant and Vanguard and a bunch of tips online but nothing worked until I deleted my antivirus which has seemed to fix it. If you have a 3rd party antivirus try disabling it temporarily and then launching the game. Hope this helps and goodluck!
