If you find yourself in the unfortunate position of playing League of Legends, the only thing that could make it worse is to be abruptly kicked out of your game’s client mid-match. Recently, players have reported encountering an error that boots them out of the League of Legends client both while in the pre-game lobby and, sometimes, during the middle of a match with an error that reads, “Your Session Has Expired”. Though you’ll be able to finish your match, you’ll miss out on the post-game shenanigans and statistics that the client offers you, and will be required to launch it again to continue playing.

Like the MOBA genre itself, this simply isn’t acceptable. Keep reading to learn how to fix the “Your Session Has Expired” error in League of Legends.
