Windows 10: Edgegdi.dll Error

Terry Lawhon · Aug 21, 2020

I am a developer, working with Windows development for over twenty years. We have an application that has been around for almost that long, and is quite large and complex, with many dlls of our own, and a few third party dlls. It is an MFC app, 32bit, not Unicode.

With the latest Windows 10 update 10.0.19041, the following error is generated when our application is run:

Clicking OK allows the application to run normally, and no other effects are noted. Running the application in the Visual Studio debugger shows that the error occurs before the execution of WinMainCRTStartup and before all dll startups I can access.

The fact that the error is a standard error for a missing dll, that usually indicates application load failure, but does NOT cause the app to fail in this case is indicative of an OS bug, in my opinion. Also, the fact that the error only happens with the particular Windows 10 version.

I would greatly appreciate some help from someone especially a Microsoft engineer who has more information about this problem.

Thanks.

D3dx9_30.dll Not Found error in Ashes Cricket 2009

Important Note: Do not, under any circumstances, download the d3dx9_30.dll DLL file individually from any "DLL download site." There are a number of different reasons that downloading DLLs from these sites are never a good idea.

Note: If you've already downloaded d3dx9_30.dll from one of those DLL download sites, remove it from wherever you put it and continue with the following steps.

1. Restart your computer if you haven't yet done so.

The d3dx9_30.dll error might be a fluke or one-time issue and a simple restart could clear it up completely. It's unlikely this will fix the problem, but restarting is always a good first troubleshooting step.

2. Install the latest version of Microsoft DirectX 9. Chances are, upgrading to the latest version of DirectX 9 will fix the d3dx9_30.dll not found error.

Note: Microsoft often releases updates to DirectX 9 without updating the version number or letter so be sure to install the latest release even if your version is technically the same.

Note: Are you a Windows Vista user with DirectX 10? Your game or program may still need DirectX 9 files to run properly so give the installation a try. Don't worry, both versions of DirectX can be run side by side in Windows Vista.

3. Assuming the latest DirectX version from Microsoft doesn't fix the d3dx9_30.dll error you're receiving, look for a DirectX installation program on your game or application CD or DVD. Usually, if a game or other program utilizes DirectX, the software developers will include a copy of DirectX on the installation disc.

Sometimes, though not often, the DirectX version included on the disc is a better fit for the program than the latest version available online.

4. Uninstall the game or software program and then reinstall it again. Something may have happened to the files in the program that work with d3dx9_30.dll and a reinstall could do the trick.

5. Restore the d3dx9_30.dll file from the DirectX 9 software package. If the above troubleshooting steps haven't worked to solve your d3dx9_30.dll error, try extracting the d3dx9_30.dll individually from the DirectX 9 package.

6. Update the drivers for your video card. While it's not the most common solution, in some situations updating the drivers for the video card in your computer could correct this DirectX issue.

DLL Missing

I actually posted the link for the "list of troubleshooting steps to resolve your boost_threads.dll problems" which is located half way down the page. I did not mean to promote any downloads.
Click to expand...

The problem is, that the required DLL is not actually even listed there.
There are just dozens of download adware links from the top to the bottom.
