DirectX runtime package

The DirectX run-time package (also known as "DirectSetup") does not install any version of DirectX, and the DirectX run-time package does not update the version of DirectX on a Windows operating system. Be aware that the only way to update your version of DirectX is to update your version of Windows.

In addition to the DirectX run-time package, some additional files may be required for a specific game or application. Although the application setup should deploy any required files, a Microsoft Download Center package is available to work around issues of installer files that cause problems.

If you experience issues in which an application fails because any of the following files are missing, you may be able to resolve the failure by running the DirectX run-time package installer on your system:

D3DX9_24.DLL through D3DX9_43.DLL
D3DX10.DLL through D3DX10_43.DLL
D3DCompiler_33.DLL through D3DCompiler_43.DLL
D3DX11_42.DLL
D3DX11_43.DLL
D3DCSX_42.DLL
D3DCSX_43.DLL
XACTENGINE2_0.DLL through XACTENGINE2_9.DLL
XACTENGINE3_0.DLL through XACTENGINE3_7.DLL
XAUDIO2_0.DLL
XAUDIO2_1.DLL
XAUDIO2_2.DLL
XAUDIO2_3.DLL
XAUDIO2_4.DLL
XAUDIO2_5.DLL
XAUDIO2_6.DLL
XAUDIO2_7.DLL
XAPOFX1_0.DLL through XAPOFX1_5.DLL
X3DAUDIO1_0.DLL through X3DAUDIO1_7.DLL
XINPUT1_1.DLL
XINPUT1_2.DLL
XINPUT1_3.DLL

To download and install the latest version of the DirectX run-time package, follow these steps:

Go to the following Microsoft website:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35
(http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35)
Follow the steps on the website to download and install DirectX.

Note When you run this package, no change is made to your version of DirectX, Direct3D 9, Direct3D 10.x, Direct3D 11.x, DirectInput, DirectSound, DirectPlay, DirectShow, or DirectMusic.

Important Do not install the DirectX SDK to resolve application compatibility problems.
