can I play directx 9 games on directx 12 platforms.

You can play DirectX 9 games on Windows 10, but you will need to install the DirectX 9 runtime, and restart your PC, because DirectX 12 is only backwards compatible to 11 and 10.

Download DirectX End-User Runtimes (June 2010) from Official Microsoft Download Center

 

unable to play some games with directx 12

Hi,

I will certainly help you with the issue.

Before assisting further, I would like to ask you few questions:

• 
  What happens when you try to play the games with the DirectX 12? Do you get any error message/code? If yes, then provide us the complete error message/code.
  

If you are unable to play games which doesn't support DirectX 12 then, you can manually download the supportable DirectX for the games.

I suggest you to refer to the below article on How to install the latest version of DirectX.

How to install the latest version of DirectX - Microsoft Support

Some games comes with the supported DirectX application embedded within the game's application, so that you can install it manually from the game.

You can also try to open the games in the compatibility mode.

• 
  Right-click on the setup file of the game and click on ‘properties’.
  
• 
  Click on the ‘compatibility’ tab and check the box ‘Run this program in compatibility mode for’ and select Windows 8/8.1 operating system from the drop down menu and proceed.
  
• 
  Once this is done, Restart the computer.
  

Please get back to us with an update. We will be glad to help.

Thank you.
