\u26a1 Quick Answer<\/p>\n

Porofessor usually stops working in-game because of a conflicting app (like Overwolf, CryptoCSP, or ViPNet), an unsupported server\/mode (Garena, PBE, Practice\/Co-op vs AI), or a display-detection glitch.<\/strong> Porofessor’s own support pages confirm these as the main causes. Closing conflicting overlays, checking your Porofessor settings, and confirming your game mode is supported fixes it in most cases.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

      1. Why Porofessor Stops Working In-Game<\/h2>\n

      Porofessor is a live-stats overlay for League of Legends built on the Overwolf platform, and its behavior depends on your game mode, server region, and what other overlay software is running alongside it. According to Porofessor’s own support documentation, most “not working” reports fall into one of two buckets: your setup isn’t supported at all (certain servers or modes), or something on your PC is interfering with the overlay.<\/p>\n

      What Porofessor does not support<\/h3>\n
        \n
      • Garena servers:<\/strong> officially unsupported and not planned to be supported.<\/li>\n
      • PBE (Public Beta Environment):<\/strong> not supported.<\/li>\n
      • Practice Tool and Co-op vs AI modes:<\/strong> the in-game overlay does not activate in these modes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
